An efficient hybrid photoanode based on the anodic TiO2 layer covered with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and BODIPY (boradiazaindacene) microrods for solar-driven water splitting experiments was developed. The derivative (B-1) synthesized, their stability in different solvents characterized order to prepare heterojunction photoelectrode. insight into materials’ properties gained by evaluating morp...

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, one of the most promising technologies for clean hydrogen generation, has drawn considerable attention over past few decades. Achieving simultaneous highly efficient and stable unassisted PEC splitting been “holy grail” in renewable fuel generation. State-of-the-art photoelectrodes have shown relatively high efficiencies (∼10–20%). Still, their stabil...
