“…Semiconductors that have been investigated rather thoroughly as photoelectrodes for one of the halfreactions include, for example, Fe 2 O 3 [29][30][31], TiO 2 [32,33], WO 3 [34,35], BiVO 4 [36,37], ZnO [38,39], and Cu 2 O [40,41]. An underlying implicit argument is that if the investigated material shows promise for one of the half-reactions, it should in principle be possible, in a later stage, to combine it with another material into a device for the overall water splitting reaction.…”
