Due to the limiting amount of fossil fuel available and to the continuous growth of the world energy consumption, it becomes important to find alternative energy sources. Hydrogen produced by the photoelectrolysis of water is a perfect candidate as a clean ...
The state-of-the-art performance, obtained through the reduction of precursor gas residence time in hematite photoanodes produced by APCVD, is explained in this report by an enhanced preferential orientation of the highly conductive crystal planes perpendi ...
A photoelectrochem. device with a mol. Ru catalyst assembled via pH-modified Nafion on a dye-sensitized nanostructured TiO2 film as anode and a Pt foil as cathode has been successfully demonstrated to split water into O2 and H2 driven by visible light. ...
The photocurrent-voltage characteristic of a photoelectrochemical cell for solar hydrogen production via water splitting, using undoped-hematite as photoanode, was obtained. Photoelectrochemical characteristics of the cell were also investigated by electro ...
Solar hydrogen production via watersplitting with hematite (Fe2O3) has been limited by poor light absorption and a small hole diffusion length. These drawbacks can be overcome by using a high-surface-area host to support a thin layer of hematite-allowing p ...
In the framework of the EU-project SOLZINC, a 300-kW solar chemical pilot plant for the production of zinc by carbothermic reduction of ZnO was experimentally demonstrated in a beam-down solar tower concentrating facility of Cassegrain optical configuratio ...
A promising route to increase the performance of hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) photoelectrodes for solar hydrogen production through water-splitting is to use an extremely thin layer of this visible light absorber on a nanostructured scaffold. However, the typica ...
Given the limitations of the materials available for photoelectrochemical water splitting, a multiphoton (tandem) approach is required to convert solar energy into hydrogen efficiently and durably. Here we investigate a promising system consisting of a hem ...
