光电化学水分解全电池的基本原理类似于Z型电荷转移机制,高能量的光生电子和空穴分别迁移至光阴极和光阳极表面,诱导水的分解反应,而低能量的光生电子和空穴直接在外电路复合。整个过程为吸收两个光子产生一对有效光生电子和空穴,因此太阳能的利用效率显著折损。

本发明的设计思想是:
为了进一步提高太阳能的转化利用效率,本发明提出储能器件集成式光电化学水分解全电池的概念。在高能光生电子和空穴分别诱导水的还原和氧化的同时,低能量的光生空穴和电子不是简单直接复合,而是以电能形式分别存储在储能器件的正极和负极中。光照下,光阳极氧化水释放氧气的同时将储能器件负极充电,而光阴极还原水产氢的同时将储能器件正极充电。光照后利用导线连接储能器件的正极和负极则会产生电流,构建成经典电化学储能体系。
本发明的优点及有益效果是:
