Climate change has been widely recognized as a major environmental problem facing the world today. According to IPCC, this is related to the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations, mainly as a result of the combustion of fossil-fuels. To reconcile this, a transition from fossil-fuels to renewable-based energy sources is unavoidable. Solar water splitting has attracted significant attention to convert the abundant solar energy to chemical energy. It uses a semiconductor to convert sunlight into electron-hole pairs, which then split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Hereby metal oxides have emerged as attractive candidates for photoelectrochemical water splitting, mainly due to their good stability in aqueous solutions, easy synthesis, and l...
