Study of the stability of the iron oxide photoelectrodeprepared through hydrothermal method

Abstract

Abstract Iron oxidephotoanodewas obtained through hydrothermal method. The morphology of the hematitephotoanode was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the photo-electrochemical stability performance was also evaluated. The photochemical stability of a photoelectrode is crucial pointfor practical application of a photoelectrochemical cell. The photoelctrochemical stabilityper formances of hematite photoanode can be improved by the synthesis method.
