Abstract Photoelectrochemistry holds the promise of directly converting sunlight to valuable chemical products. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) methods, however, lag behind their electrochemical counterparts in terms current density. In this work, we demonstrate that, by using concentrated sunlight, can achieve densities similar but with lower energy input. Specifically, combined direct PEC oxidation glycerol dark hydrogen evolution or CO 2 reduction a membrane-separated continuous-flow cell. We achieved over 110 mA cm −2 photocurrent density, which is at least an order magnitude larger than those typically reported literature. demonstrated that product distribution notably different and scenarios same parasitic oxygen reaction be suppressed case. This approach raises opportunities drive complex reactions more selective manner.

Abstract Semiconductor‐based photoelectrochemical (PEC) fuel cells offer a feasible solution for sustainable and environmentally friendly energy production by converting solar chemical into electrical energy. However, the low PEC activities of have hindered their practical application due to rapid electron‐hole recombination slow interfacial reaction kinetics. To address this issue, unique cell composed dual photoelectrodes utilizing low‐cost biomass, ascorbic acid, as an organic is reported. Significantly, integration bifunctional iron single‐atom catalysts (Fe SACs) photoactive materials has effectively constructed bridge charge carrier transfer, boosting kinetics photoelectric conversion efficiency. Notably, optimal dual‐photoelectrode decorated with Fe SACs exhibits superior performance, delivering maximum power density 82.82 µW cm −2 . Taking advantage peroxidase‐like activity SACs, resultant self‐powered are explored sensitively detecting actual uric acid samples. This study provides promising avenue boost efficiency sensitive biosensing.

Abstract Sluggish oxygen evolution reactions on photoanode surfaces severely limit the application of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. The loading cocatalysts photoanodes has been recognized as simplest and most efficient optimization scheme, which can reduce surface barrier, provide more active sites, accelerate catalytic reaction kinetics. Nevertheless, introduction inevitably generates interfaces between (Ph/OEC), causes severe interfacial recombination hinders carrier transfer. Recently, many researchers have focused cocatalyst engineering, while few investigated effect Ph/OEC interface. Hence, to maximize advantages cocatalysts, problems for designing are systematically introduced. In this review, interrelationship PEC performance is classified some methods characterizing investigated. Additionally, common strategies summarized. This review details cocatalyst‐design‐based problems, provides ideas offers references solving problems.
