Abstract |
Artificial photosynthetic systems are promising approaches to convert sunlight into chemical fuels. The most popular strategy is photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting to produce hydrogen sustainably. Composite structures, typically comprising a primary photon absorbing semiconductor with a secondary material that may play a number of assisting roles, are constructed using various materials to elucidate the processes of electron-hole separation and charge transport through the interface. These composite structures are divided into four different configurations depending on the possible electron-hole separation mechanism. Typically, the synthesis and characterization of the semiconductor electrodes and the effect of co-catalyst layers on the PEC performance are discussed in detail. |
