Low cost, scalable water-splitting fuels the future hydrogen economy
Molecular models representing a 2D heterostructure made of graphene (gray background hexagonal lattice), and islands on top of hexagonal WS2 and MoS, as well as an alloy of the two. Water (H2O) molecules in red (oxygen) and gray (hydrogen) come from the bottom left hand side and get transformed catalytically after interacting with the heterostructures into H2 bubbles (top right hand side).

Penn State DNA ladders: inexpensive molecular rulers for DNA research
Gel electrophoresis images of the two Penn State DNA ladders created by cutting the pPSU1 and pPSU2 plasmids with restriction enzymes. The 100-base-pair (bp) ladder is designed to be used with both agarose and acrylamide gels. Credit: Tan Laboratory, Penn State University
