Nanowire-Nanoparticle Conjugate Photolytic Fuel Generators

Background Conversion of sunlight to chemical fuels by artificial photosynthesis has been a long-sought goal. In particular, significant research activity was stimulated towards photolytic cells producing hydrogen in 1972, when Fujishima and Honda demonstrated water could split to hydrogen and oxygen under sunlight (photolysis) using an n-type TiO2...
