Wang, Jian-JunHu, YelinToth, RitaFortunato, GiuseppinoBraun, Artur2016-04-012016-04-012016-04-01201610.1039/c5ta06439bhttps://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/125458WOS:000371077300005We present a facile nonpolar organic solution synthesis and processing method for water splitting photoanodes based on iron oxide with a relatively low sintering temperature (550 degrees C). The photocurrent of these photoanodes can reach 3.3 mA cm(-2) at 1.23 V vs. RHE with high IPCE and stability, which makes them highly attractive candidate photoanodes for hydrogen generation.A facile nonpolar organic solution process of a nanostructured hematite photoanode with high efficiency and stability for water splittingtext::journal::journal article::research article
