| Abstract [eng] |
Particular attention is paid to the search of efficient electrocatalysts suitable for the implementation of the water photo-splitting process. ZnO is a material of prime choice. Its use in aqueous systems is hindered by the fast photocorrosion. Recent research efforts have been focused on the improvement of ZnO stability and catalytic properties by mixing it with 3d transition metal oxides (e.x. cobalt oxides). Recently, inorganic cobalt-phosphate complex (termed Co-Pi) has emerged as a particularly promising oxygen evolving catalyst based on earth-abundant elements. |
