Over the last few days I've been researching alternatives to weakening the covalent bond of a water molecule. One of the interesting options I have found in some research, uv light is used to mimic photosynthesis. The thought behind this research is to send photons thru the water to disrupt the normal ebb and flow of the water molecule. It turns out, there are many types of uv light. The light of choice appears to be VUV, which is vaccuum ultraviolet. Also, some research has used x-ray and some has used an intense laser light to break down water on a molecular scale. The uv light seems to be the most doable at this stage. If anyone has some expertise in this field, I would be interested in some basic information in this field. Certainly, one has to use precautions with this type of light, because of radiation, but it looks exciting.
