HIGH PERFORMANCE CATALYSTS ON STRUCTURED ELECTRODES FOR WATER DISSOCIATION BASED ON TERNARY SILICIDES
The project is based on the discovery of the pro- moting properties of a new alloy for the photo-oxidation of water, which should enable the development of a new family of alternative catalysts to current photoelectrodes for the production of solar fuel.
The project aims to optimise the catalyst production process, quantify and optimise its performance and assess its lifespan. A demonstrator should validate the suitability of the catalyst for the photoreduction of water (production of H2), electrolysis and photo-catalysis.
