Not exact matches
Essentially, they created what is known as a quantum dot
photoelectrochemical cell that catalytically achieved quantum efficiency
for hydrogen gas production exceeding 100 % — in the case of their experiments an efficiency approaching 114 %.
Having shown that chemically modified magnetite (Fe2CrO4) meets the basic criteria required
for an air stable, visible light photocatalyst, the investigators plan to carry out experiments in which they will transfer freshly grown Fe2CrO4 surfaces to a
photoelectrochemical cell under a dry nitrogen atmosphere to avoid picking up surface carbon contamination.
«Since the
photoelectrochemical cell is built
for the purpose of hydrogen production and HMF oxidation simply replaces oxygen production at the anode, in essence, no resources are used specifically
for HMF oxidation,» says Choi.
