Solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of more than 9% in photocatalytic water splitting

Peng Zhou et al.

Summary: Production of hydrogen fuel from sunlight and water is a promising pathway for carbon neutrality. A strategy using pure water, concentrated solar light, and an indium gallium nitride photocatalyst has achieved a solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 9.2%. The strategy promotes forward hydrogen-oxygen evolution and inhibits reverse hydrogen-oxygen recombination by operating at an optimal reaction temperature, which can be achieved by harvesting infrared light in sunlight.

Dual bandgap operation of a GaAs/Si photoelectrode

Mekan Piriyev et al.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the performance of unprotected epitaxial GaAs/Si photoelectrodes during photocorrosion using structural, optical, and photoelectrochemical characterizations. We found that photoanodes consisting of a 1 μm thick GaAs epitaxially grown thin film on a low-cost Si substrate exhibited higher photocurrent than expensive commercial GaAs wafers. Through photoelectrochemical experiments under monochromatic excitation, we attributed the improved photocurrent to the dual-bandgap operation of the GaAs/Si photoelectrode, benefiting from both GaAs and Si photo-generated carriers. This finding opens up new possibilities for designing efficient and low-cost dual-bandgap photoelectrodes.

The 2022 solar fuels roadmap

Gideon Segev et al.

Summary: The performance of solar fuel generation devices has made progress, but still faces many scientific and engineering challenges. There is a need to significantly improve conversion efficiency, stability, and product selectivity at the electrode and device level. Additionally, maintaining these performance metrics while scaling up devices and systems and controlling costs and carbon footprint is crucial. This roadmap surveys various aspects of solar fuel generation, highlighting the current state of the art, key challenges, and advancements required to meet them. It can serve as a guide for researchers and funding agencies in addressing the most pressing needs of the field.

Robust Protection of III-V Nanowires in Water Splitting by a Thin Compact TiO2 Layer

Fan Cui et al.

Summary: The use of a thin layer of TiO2 deposited by atomic layer deposition can provide robust protection to III-V semiconductor nanowires, enhancing both their stability and performance in water-splitting applications. The protected nanowires showed improved photoluminescence intensity retention, higher photocurrent density, and a record-long highly stable performance compared to unprotected counterparts, demonstrating the effectiveness of the TiO2 layer as a protective coating.
