Direct growth of uniform carbon nitride layers with extended optical absorption towards efficient water-splitting photoanodes
J. Qin, J. Barrio, et al.
This groundbreaking research, conducted by Jiani Qin, Jesús Barrio, Guiming Peng, Jonathan Tzadikov, Liel Abisdris, Michael Volokh, and Menny Shalom, reveals a novel synthesis method for carbon nitride films that dramatically enhance optical absorption and charge separation. The developed photoanodes exhibit remarkable water-splitting capabilities, with a photocurrent density of 353 µA cm⁻², setting a new precedent in photoelectrochemical cells.
