Atomic Layer Deposition of Space‐Efficient SnO2 Underlayers for BiVO4 Host–Guest Architectures for Photoassisted Water Splitting

Abstract: Invited for this month′s cover are the Stefik and Rao groups at the University of South Carolina and Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The image shows a fantastical submarine solar‐water‐splitting process using the host‐guest architectures described in the report. The Full Paper itself is available at 10.1002/cssc.201802566.

“…Thus, the construction of host/guest architecture in photoanodes can simultaneously enhance visible light absorption as well as separation and collection of charge carriers, dramatically improving the solar‐to‐fuel conversion efficiency of PEC photoanodes. [ 44–45 ] Typically, the configuration of PEC devices can be also divided into three types, namely nonintegrated/modular, fully integrated/wireless, and partially integrated/wired PEC devices. In the nonintegrated/modular PEC devices, water splitting and light absorption are achieved by electrodes and photovoltaic cells, respectively.…”

“…Bismuth-containing ternary oxides, such as BiVO 4 , CuBi 2 O 4 , BiMn 2 O 5 , Bi 2 WO 6 , and BiFeO 3 , have attracted much attention as photoabsorbers for solar driven water splitting as a sustainable way to produce hydrogen as a solar fuel. However, none of these materials currently fulfill the stringent demands for large-scale practical applications. A major drawback of most metal oxides is the limited charge carrier diffusion length (usually on the order of 2–100 nm) compared to the optical penetration depth (usually >100 nm). , This means that most of the charge carriers that are generated in films thick enough to absorb most of the incident light will not be able to reach the interface.…”
