Title: Photoelectrochemical cell including Ga(Sb.sub.x)N.sub.1-x semiconductor electrode

Abstract

The composition of matter comprising Ga(Sb.sub.x)N.sub.1-x where x=0.01 to 0.06 is characterized by a band gap between 2.4 and 1.7 eV. A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor layer of that composition. A photoelectric cell includes that semiconductor device.
