摘要: Photoelectrochemical water splitting is far more efficient thanks to the novel ZnOSe/ZnO/BZO thin-film photoanodes fabricated in this work. A structure developed for simultaneously suppressing charge recombination ZnO bulk and at semiconductor-electrolyte interface. This achieves a five-fold enhancement water-splitting performance, compared that of pristine photoanodes, when illuminated using visible light.
