The Self-Passivation Mechanism in Degradation of BiVO4 Photoanode
Summary: BiVO4 is a promising photoanode material for solar-assisted water splitting in a photoelectrochemical cell but has a propensity to degrade. Investigations carried out here in 0.1 M Na2SO4 electrolyte showed that degradation is by dissolution of V in the electrolyte while Bi is retained on t...
