Abstract

Mi's team also raised the temperature of the water being split to 70°C, which prevented most of the hydrogen and oxygen gases from reacting with one another to reform water. Those charges are then fed to catalysts on the electrodes to split water molecules and generate hydrogen gas at one electrode and oxygen gas at the other. The semiconductor absorbs sunlight and generates electrical charges that are fed to catalytic metals on its surface that then split water molecules. [Extracted from the article]
