Solar hydrogen production using epitaxial srtio3 on a gaas photovoltaic
One of the grand challenges for creating a sustainable society is to develop practical materials and devices that produce fuels when exposed to sunlight. Solar fuel production, e.g. via photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting1–3 or CO2 reduction,4,5 allows the storage of solar energy in chemical.
A thin SrTiO3 metal oxide layer of 40 unit cells (∼16 nm-thick) is epitaxially grown32 on GaAs(001) solar cells by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). A schematic of the 16 nm-thick.
This work demonstrates the robustness of integrating III–V technology with a high-quality single-crystal, epitaxial oxide as a platform for further development of photocathodes for solar fuel production. Using a catalyst-free 16 nm-thick SrTiO3 on np-GaAs, a stable.
