摘要
A new nanoarchitecture photoelectrode design comprising CdS quantum-dot-sensitized, optically and electrically active TiO 2 inverse opals is developed for photoelectrochemical water splitting. The photoelectrochemical performance shows high photocurrent density (4.84 mA cm -2 at 0 V vs. Ag/AgCl) under simulated solar-light illumination. Copyright © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
