Conversion and chemical storage of solar energy in a photoelectrochemical cell. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6397721
; ;
Principles of a photoelectrochemical cell are described based on the photodissociation of water into hydrogen and oxygen to convert and store solar energy. Further work is needed on the choice of dye and electrode material to optimise the rate of hydrogen production. A reprint of 'Photoelectrochemical hydrogen production using dyes in visible light' is annexed to the report.
