Abstract:Solar water splitting has become a promising way to alleviate supply instability of solar energy by directly storing energy in the form of hydrogen fuel. Maximizing efficiency for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting requires (i) a tunable bandgap that captures the solar spectrum, (ii) an energy band edge that spans the water redox potential, and (iii) high quantum efficiency [1,2]. Although a variety of materials such as Si, Ta 3 N 5 , and BiVO 4 have been studied as photoelectrodes, most materials have… Show more
