p-n photoelectrolysis cells
Abstract
The efficiency of photoelectrolysis with solar radiation can be greatly enhanced by using simultaneously illuminated n- and p-type electrodes. An energy level scheme for heterotype and homotype p-n photoelectrolysis cells is presented which explains the enhanced efficiency. Data are presented for the homotype n-GaP/p-GaP and the heterotype n-TiO2/p-GaP systems which support the energy model. H2 and O2 are produced in the n-TiO2/p-GaP cell without the need of an external anodic bias.

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.
