A monolithically integrated, intrinsically safe, 10% efficient, solar-driven water-splitting system based on active, stable earth-abundant electrocatalysts in conjunction with tandem III–V light absorbers protected by amorphous TiO2 films

Abstract: A monolithically integrated device, protected by a TiO2 stabilization layer, splits water using sunlight.

“…19,21 Ohmic losses are often minimized by using concentrated acid or alkaline electrolytes such as H 2 SO 4 , HClO 4 , or KOH at concentrations of 0.5 M or higher. 4,5,14,22,23 In wireless systems with flat monoliths consisting of dense PV and electrocatalysts mounted on either side, ions need to travel around the dense monolith to cover the distance between anode and cathode. Already at the centimeter scale unacceptable ohmic losses of hundreds of millivolts and more are to be expected.…”

“…Although the active areas are typically small, <0.5 cm 2 , impressive efficiencies (up to 14%) and lifetimes of up to several days have been reached. 3,27 These devices are still in an early stage of development and so, it is yet unknown whether they can provide Figure 2.
