Amorphous FeOOH Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalyst for Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
Abstract
Reaching the goal of economical photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting will likely require the combination of efficient solar absorbers with high activity electrocatalysts for the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER). Toward this goal, we synthesized an amorphous FeOOH (a-FeOOH) phase that has not previously been studied as an OER catalyst. The a-FeOOH films show activity comparable to that of another OER cocatalyst, Co-borate (Co-Bi), in 1 M Na2CO3, reaching 10 mA/cm(2) at an overpotential of ∼550 mV for 10 nm thick films. Additionally, the a-FeOOH thin films absorb less than 3% of the solar photons (AM1.5G) with energy greater than 1.9 eV, are homogeneous over large areas, and act as a protective layer separating the solution from the solar absorber. The utility of a-FeOOH in a realistic system is tested by depositing on amorphous Si triple junction solar cells with a photovoltaic efficiency of 6.8%. The resulting a-FeOOH/a-Si devices achieve a total water splitting efficiency of 4.3% at 0 V vs RHE in a three-electrode configuration and show no decrease in efficiency over the course of 4 h.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
