Solar-Driven Reduction of 1 atm CO2 to Formate at 10% Energy-Conversion Efficiency by Use of a TiO2-Protected III-V Tandem Photoanode in Conjunction with a Bipolar Membrane and a Pd/C Cathode Electrocatalyst

TL;DR: In this article, a solar-driven CO2 reduction (CO2R) cell was constructed, consisting of a tandem GaAs/InGaP/TiO2/Ni photoanode in 1.0 M KOH(aq) (pH = 13.7) to facilitate the oxygen-evolution reaction (OER), a Pd/C nanoparticle-coated Ti mesh cathode in 2.8 M KHCO3(aq), and a bipolar membrane to allow for steady-state operation of the catholyte and anolyte at different bulk
Journal ArticleDOI

Photoelectrochemical Behavior of n‑type Si(100) Electrodes Coated with Thin Films of Manganese Oxide Grown by Atomic Layer Deposition

TL;DR: In this article, MnO-coated n-Si photoanodes displayed open-circuit voltages of up to 550 mV and stable anodic currents for periods of hours at 0.0 V versus the solution potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystalline nickel manganese antimonate as a stable water-oxidation catalyst in aqueous 1.0 M H2SO4

TL;DR: In this article, a nickel-manganese antimonate electrocatalyst with a rutile-type crystal structure was reported to catalyze the oxidation of water to O2(g) at a rate corresponding to 10 mA cm−2 of current density when operated in contact with 1.0 M sulfuric acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical Control of Charge Transfer and Recombination at Semiconductor Photoelectrode Surfaces

TL;DR: This Forum Article summarizes recent results that have elucidated the key factors that control such charge-transfer rates, including verification of the Marcus inverted region, identification of the maximum charge- Transfer rate constant for outer-sphere, nonadsorbing redox couples at optimal exoergicity, and the role of nuclear reorganization on the value of the interfacial charge- transfer rate constant at semiconductor electrodes.
