Optimization hydrogen production over visible light-driven titania-supported bimetallic photocatalyst from water photosplitting in tandem photoelectrochemical cell

Solar hydrogen production was investigated over a Cu-Ni doped TiO2 photocatalyst from water photosplitting in a tandem photoelectrochemical cell, which was made up by connecting a modified photoelectrochemical cell to dye solar cell in a series. A mathematical representation for preparation paramete...
