Photochemistry and photoelectrochemistry technology assessment

Abstract

This report covers the principles of photoconversion of solar energy and the production of electricity using electrochemical photovoltaic cells, photoelectrochemical storage cells and photogalvanic cells. Hydrogen-producing systems described include photoelectrolysis cells, photoassisted electrolysis cells; hydrogen-producing systems based on semiconductor suspensions; hydrogen- and oxygen-producing systems based on photochemical electron transfer reaction in solution and microheterogeneous catalyst; and photochemical systems containing biological-components. Carbon dioxide fixation is examined in detail. The names of scientists working on photoconversion are given in the appendices. (author).
