Long-lived charge separated states in nanostructured semiconductor photoelectrodes for the production of solar fuels

Cowan, Alexander J., Durrant, James R.·2013·Chem. Soc. Rev.

Abstract

The efficient use of sunlight to drive the production of solar fuels requires the photogeneration of suitably long-lived charge separated states capable of driving the multi-electron chemistry of fuel synthesis. Here we discuss a range of promising material design approaches to increasing charge carrier lifetimes, focusing upon semiconductor photoelectrodes for water photolysis and carbon dioxide reduction. Parallels are drawn between the strategies deployed in the development of such artificial systems and those found in natural photosynthesis. We address the use of a range of junctions, including electrolyte/semiconductor, semiconductor/semiconductor and dye sensitized interfaces to provide the spatial separation of charges. A key consideration of the review is the design of such interfaces to achieve a sufficient increase in charge carrier lifetime with a high quantum yield, whilst minimising the energy loss associated with this lifetime gain.

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.
