- Description
Hydrogen is a carbon-free alternative fuel that avoid non desirable pollutant sub products and results in total combustion. Fujishima and Honda [1] demonstrated the possibility to get hydrogen fuel by water splitting using a solar-driven titanium dioxide photoelectrode cell (PEC). As alternatives, conventional semiconductors like Si, GaAs, InP, CuInSe an CdS showed impressive efficiencies as PECs but their low stability in water solutions and/or high cost hinders their use for such applications.
