Inorganic nanostructures for photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic
water splitting
Frank E. Osterloh
University of California, Davis Department of Chemistry
▪ Semiconductors with smaller bandgaps can be used, can absorb a greater fraction of the solar spectrum
Photoelectrochemical devices
Photoelectrochemical devices
▪ Several ways to facilitate reaction:
Photovoltaic cell plus electrolyzer Thermochemical methods, etc.
▪ The most economical ones:
Photoelectrosynthetic cells (PECs) Suspended photocatalysts
Photoelectrochemical devices
▪ The best performing photoelectrochemical devices known today are Tandem cells.
▪ a combination of two or more semiconductors connected in series
▪ Efficiencies between 12.4% and over 18% have been achieved, i.e. about half of the theoretical efficiency limit for these devices.
▪ But the performance cannot be sustained.
2 Brief history of nanoscale photoelectrochemistry and photocatalysis
▪ Modern nanoscience:
▪ only about 40 years old, began in 1974 with Dingle’s discovery of quantum size effects in thin films
▪ The photoelectrode materials are not stable under operating conditions and undergo photocorrosion.
▪ Similar stability problems exist for most other visible light absorbing II–VI, III–V, and group 14 element semiconductors.
▪Biblioteka BaiduPhotoelectrochemistry:
▪ started in 1955 with Brattain’s electrochemical studies on germanium electrolyte junctions
▪ Water photoelectrolysis at illuminated TiO2 electrodes:
three main strategies
Coat conventional photovoltaic cells with 1 cocatalysts for water splitting or with
protecting layers to inhibit photocorrosion
Development of new metal oxide materials 2 that combine suitable properties for
▪ in 1971 by Fujishima and Honda
▪ suspended semiconductor particles:
▪ Bard demonstrated the photocatalytic effects
1 Introduction
photovoltaic cells
✓ The solar energy can be converted into electricity
with up to 43.5% efficiency.
➢ These cells are more expensive than virtually ‘free’ coal.
photoelectrochemical water splitting
Exploit scaling laws and specific effects at 3 the nanoscale to enhance the efficiency of
existing semiconductors and metal oxides
➢ Electricity is difficult to store and to distribute over long distances.
1 Introduction
▪ Converting the photochemical energy directly into fuel: H2O →1/2 O2(g) + H2(g); ∆G = +237 kJ/mol

3 Inorganic nanostructures
4 Conclusion and outlook
carbon free energy technology
The solar energy received on the Earth’s surface meets current and future human energy demand.
