Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the constant consumption of traditional energy sources, it is urgent to explore and develop new energy sources. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is a method of preparing energy that can continuously generate hydrogen fuel without pollution to the environment. As an important part of the PEC water splitting system, the choice of semiconductor photoelectrode is crucial. Among these materials, gallium nitride (GaN) has attracted considerable attention due to its tunable band gap, favorable band edge positions, wide band gap, and good stability. In the past years, many reports have been obtained in GaN for PEC water splitting. This review summarizes the GaN as photoelectrodes for PEC water splitting, and methods to improve the efficiency of GaN for PEC water splitting also will be summarized from change morphology, doping, surface modification, and composition of solid solution or multiple-metal incorporation. Eventually, the future research directions and challenges of GaN for PEC water splitting are also discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Artificial photosynthesis on semiconductor photoelectrodes is a clean and eco-friendly method for the generation of solar fuels, including hydrogen and hydrocarbons directly from sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide, which can address the challenges associated with energy demands and storage. Simultaneously achieving high efficiency (solar-to-hydrogen efficiency > 15%) and stability (> 1000 h) for unassisted photoelectrochemical water splitting is the “holy grail” in the field of clean, renewable energy. III-nitride semiconductors are promising materials to realize high-efficiency photoelectrodes: their energy bandgap can be varied across nearly the entire solar spectrum by changing the alloy compositions, and the energy band edge positions straddle water oxidation and reduction potentials under deep visible and near-IR light irradiation. In this study, we report the development of high quality (In)GaN nanostructures on Si, using molecular beam epitaxy, for high efficiency and ultrahigh stable photoelectrochemical water splitting photoelectrodes. We have designed InGaN alloy photoanodes having indium content ~ 50%, corresponding to an energy bandgap of ~1.7 eV, for high-efficiency solar water oxidation. This study lays a solid foundation for the development of a tandem device with InGaN as top light absorber stacked on Si bottom absorber to achieve solar-to-hydrogen efficiency > 25%.Furthermore, we demonstrated the use of multifunctional N-terminated GaN nanowires protection layer on Si photocathode with Pt catalyst, which enhances light absorption and reduces interfacial charge transfer losses, to achieve high half-cell conversion efficiency ~ 12% and the longest stability of 3000 h, for any photoelectrode operating at a similar efficiency level, under AM 1.5G one-sun illumination for solar water splitting. We further showed the first demonstration of low-cost, earth-abundant and few monolayers thick MoSe2 as a protection layer on Si photoanode for hydrogen production under AM 1.5G one-sun illumination. In the end, we have also presented the growth of tunnel junction nanowires to monolithically integrate the p+-InGaN nanowires (top cell) on Si solar cell (bottom cell) to form a double-junction photocathode. This photocathode, with optimized surface modifications, can achieve a high solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of ~ 10.1% and high stability of 100 h for unassisted water splitting under AM 1.5G one-sun illumination. These results are significantly superior compared to other state-of-the-art photoelectrodes for unassisted solar water splitting. The III-nitride nanostructures presented in this work bring us one step closer in achieving high efficiency, long-term stability and low-cost photoelectrochemical water splitting systems required for large-scale applications"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines many of the techniques involved in materials development and characterization for photoelectrochemical (PEC) – for example, proper metrics for describing material performance, how to assemble testing cells and prepare materials for assessment of their properties, and how to perform the experimental measurements needed to achieve reliable results towards better scientific understanding. For each technique, proper procedure, benefits, limitations, and data interpretation are discussed. Consolidating this information in a short, accessible, and easy to read reference guide will allow researchers to more rapidly immerse themselves into PEC research and also better compare their results against those of other researchers to better advance materials development. This book serves as a “how-to” guide for researchers engaged in or interested in engaging in the field of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. PEC water splitting is a rapidly growing field of research in which the goal is to develop materials which can absorb the energy from sunlight to drive electrochemical hydrogen production from the splitting of water. The substantial complexity in the scientific understanding and experimental protocols needed to sufficiently pursue accurate and reliable materials development means that a large need exists to consolidate and standardize the most common methods utilized by researchers in this field.

This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photocatalysis (PC) and photoelectric catalysis (PEC) are environmental protection technologies that use sunlight capacity and environmental governance, and they have a wide range of applications in hydrogen production, carbon dioxide reduction, organic degradation, and other fields. When the light is irradiated on the material, part of the light energy will be converted into heat energy, and the combination of this part of the heat energy with PC and PEC will become an important way to improve optical performance. Compared with traditional technology, the synergistic effect of light and heat can obtain higher catalytic performance and improve energy utilization efficiency. This review begins with an overview of the principle of photoheat generation, which produces heat energy in a non-radiative process through photo-induced instability of electrons. The principle of thermal effect on the performance improvement of PC/PEC is analyzed from the dynamics and thermodynamics of photoreaction and electric reaction. On this basis, several materials widely used at present are listed, such as oxides, plasmas, conductive polymers, carbon materials, and other typical photothermal materials. The specific applications of photothermal materials in PC and PEC processes, such as hydrogen production by oxidation, carbon dioxide reduction, organic matter reduction, and seawater desalination, were discussed. Finally, the challenges to PC/PEC from the introduction of thermal effects are further discussed to provide a clean and sustainable way to build a carbon-neutral society.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photoelectrochemical (PEC) etching is a simple and inexpensive wet etching approach that is widely used to fabricate porous gallium nitride (GaN) thin films. However, many fundamental issues on the etching mechanism and the optical response of the fabricated porous structure still remain unclear. In this book, PEC etched porous GaN thin films with a variety of morphologies such as circular, hexagonal, leaf like-, and honeycomb-like patterns were described in detail. The effects of semiconductor types, etching voltage and etching duration on the surface morphology and the optical response of the fabricated porous structure were discussed. Attenuated total reflection method which is very sensitive to the surface layer of the porous GaN was applied to extract the carrier concentration, porosity, and layer thicknesses or the porous layer. Through this book, a better understanding of the PEC etching of the porous GaN can be obtained.
