Photoanodes based on TiO 2 and α-Fe 2 O 3 for solar water splitting – superior role of 1D nanoarchitectures and of combined heterostructures

Year: 2017

Type: review

Abstract: heterostructures, for PEC applications. Various routes towards modification and enhancement of PEC activity of 1D photoanodes are discussed including doping, decoration with co-catalysts and heterojunction engineering. Finally, the challenges related to the optimization of charge transfer kinetics in both oxides are highlighted.
