Photoelectrochemical Cell for water splitting with semi conducting photoanode (TiO2) and metal counter electrode (Pt).
A photoelectrochemical cell under UV illumination generates a photocurrent. This photocurrent can be increased by applying an external bias because of improved exciton splitting.
No photocurrent is observed if there is no UV illumination and no external bias.
My question is: Can a photocurrent be generated with an external bias and no UV illumination?
Thanks
