The effect of oxygen vacancies (V<sub>O</sub>) on α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (110) facet on the performance of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is researched by both experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The experimental results manifest that the enhancement in photocurrent density by the presence of V<sub>O</sub> is related with increased charge separation and charge-transfer efficiencies. The electrochemical analysis reveals that the sample with V<sub>O</su ...[more]
