Photoelectrolysis and physical properties of the semiconducting electrode WO2
Abstract
The behavior of semiconducting electrodes for photoelectrolysis of water is examined in terms of the physical properties of the semiconductor. The semiconductor-electrolyte junction is treated as a simple Schottky barrier, and the photocurrent is described using this model. The approach is appropriate since large-band-gap semiconductors have an intrinsic oxygen overpotential which removes the electrode reaction kinetics as the rate-limiting step. The model is successful in describing the wavelength and potential dependence of the photocurrent in WO3 and allows a determination of the band gap, optical absorption depth, minority-carrier diffusion length, flat-band potential, and the nature of the fundamental optical transition (direct or indirect). It is shown for WO3 that minority-carrier diffusion plays a limited role in determining the photoresponse of the semiconductor-electrolyte junction. There are indications that the diffusion length in this low carrier mobility material is determined by diffusion-controlled bulk recombination processes rather than the more common trap-limited recombination. It is also shown that the fundamental optical transition is indirect and that the band-gap energy depends relatively strongly on applied potential and electrolyte. This effect seems to be the result of field-induced crystallographic distortions in antiferroelectric WO3.

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.
