Photoelectrochemical water splitting provides a promising solution for harvesting and storing solar energy. As the best-performing oxide photocathode, the Cu<sub>2</sub>O photocathode holds the performance rivaling that of many photovoltaic semiconductor-based photocathodes through continuous research and development. However, the state-of-the-art Cu<sub>2</sub>O photocathode employs gold as the back contact which can lead to considerable electron-hole recombination. Here, we present a Cu<sub>2< ...[more]
