Photoelectrochemical water splitting: silicon photocathodes for hydrogen evolution
The development of low cost, scalable, renewable energy technologies is one of today’s most pressing scientific challenges. We report on progress towards the development of a photoelectrochemical water-splitting system that will use sunlight and water as the inputs to produce renewable hydrogen with oxygen as a by-product. This system is based on the design principle of incorporating two separa...
متن کاملPhotoelectrochemical Hydrogen Production
At the University of Hawaii (UH), the approach to developing high-efficiency, low-cost photoelectrochemical (PEC) processes for the direct production of hydrogen has included the use of integrated electrochemical/optical models to design photoelectrodes based on multijunction thin-film technology; materials research to identify critical issues on photoelectrode efficiency and stability; and the...
متن کاملPHOTOELECTROCHEMICAL PRODUCTION of HYDROGEN
In this year’s Phase II photoelectrochemical hydrogen production research at the University of Hawaii, we have continued our emphasis on developing high-performance multi-junction hydrogen photoelectrodes based on low cost semiconductor and catalyst films. Significant progress was made in the advancement of amorphous silicon/germanium and copper indium gallium diselenide materials for solid-sta...
متن کاملPhotoelectrochemical Systems for Hydrogen Production
Two important research areas that are part of NREL’s effort towards a photoelectrochemicalbased (PEC) direct water splitting system include surface modification to improve system energetics and triple junction amorphous silicon structures (α-Si) as a low-cost thin-film water spitting system. In the area of surface modification, p-GaInP2 surfaces were tailored by adsorption of metallated porphyr...
متن کاملEfficiency limits for photoelectrochemical water-splitting
Theoretical limiting efficiencies have a critical role in determining technological viability and expectations for device prototypes, as evidenced by the photovoltaics community's focus on detailed balance. However, due to their multicomponent nature, photoelectrochemical devices do not have an equivalent analogue to detailed balance, and reported theoretical efficiency limits vary depending on...
