Molybdenum Sulfide Materials to Provide Catalytic Activity and Surface Protection for Active and Stable Water Splitting Photocathodes

摘要

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting could provide a sustainable means of hydrogen production. Recent research in PEC water splitting has focused on developing semiconductors and electrocatalysts suitable for application in a dual-absorber device configuration due to the high solar-to-hydrogen efficiencies tandem devices could enable. To develop fully functional water splitting systems, these semiconductors and electrocatalysts must be combined into integrated photoelectrodes.
