PHOTOELECTRODE FOR SOLAR WATER OXIDATION

摘要

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to photoelectrodes. In one aspect, a photoelectrode may include a substrate including an electrically conductive surface and at least one nanostructure in electrical contact with the surface of the substrate. The nanostructure may include an impurity. The impurity may impart a light-absorbing characteristic to the nanostructure.

主权项

1. A device comprising:
a substrate including an electrically conductive surface; and a nanostructure in electrical contact with the electrically conductive surface, wherein the nanostructure includes an impurity proximate a surface of the nanostructure, wherein the impurity is configured to allow the nanostructure to absorb light.
