Copper-surface-mediated synthesis of acetylenic carbon-rich nanofibers for active metal-free photocathodes

Copper-surface-mediated synthesis of acetylenic carbon-rich nanofibers for active metal-free photocathodes

While photoelectrochemical devices combine light-absorption with fuel and electricity generation, their implementation is hampered by high costs and low output. Here, the authors synthesized acetylene-rich carbon fibers by copper-mediated polymerization for high-activity, metal-free photocathodes.
