Background
The development and design of semiconductor thin film photoelectrodes to achieve efficient utilization of solar energy, i.e., to increase the efficient conversion efficiency of solar energy-electric energy and solar energy-chemical energy, has become one of the effective approaches to solve the global energy crisis. Photoelectrodes are generally composed of multilayer semiconductor thin films or metallic nanostructures grown on conductive glass such as FTO, ITO, etc. with good light absorption efficiency. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the thin film photoelectrode and the test of photoelectrochemical products need to be carried out in a photoelectrochemical reaction cell.
