Hydrogen (an energy vector with a high energy density and yielding only water as combustion by-product) is today a promising alternative to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. Its obtention, however – whose sources are mostly fossil currently – is not sustainable. One of the most promising alternatives is to produce this hydrogen by using sunlight to assist the (photo)electrochemical water splitting. This approach, deceivingly simple in theory, remains elusive due to high costs and low yields of the overall conversion of light into chemical energy. The experimental approach adopted for the present work towards a more accessible production of hydrogen consists in perfectioning photoanode materials that are capable of performing the oxid...
