    Water photoelectrolysis has the potential to produce renewable hydrogen fuel, therefore addressing the intermittent nature of sunlight. Herein, a monolithic, photovoltaic (PV)-assisted water electrolysis device of minimal ...
  • Sun, Xinwei; Xu, Kaiqi; Fleischer, Christian; Liu, Xin; Grandcolas, Mathieu; Strandbakke, Ragnar; Bjørheim, Tor Svendsen; Norby, Truls Eivind; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    In order to adopt water electrolyzers as a main hydrogen production system, it is critical to develop inexpensive and earth-abundant catalysts. Currently, both half-reactions in water splitting depend heavily on noble metal ...
  • Xu, Kaiqi; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Risbakk, Sanne; Yang, Mingyi; Backe, Paul Hoff; Grandcolas, Mathieu; Bjørås, Magnar; Norby, Truls Eivind (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    In this work, Co-based cocatalysts are electrodeposited on mesoporous Ta3N5 nanotubes. The electrodeposition time is varied and the optimized photoelectrode reaches a photocurrent density of 6.3 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs. SHE, ...
  • Xu, Kaiqi; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Vøllestad, Einar; Ruan, Qiushi; Tang, Junwang; Norby, Truls Eivind (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    A solid-state photoelectrochemical (SSPEC) cell is an attractive approach for solar water splitting, especially when it comes to monolithic device design. In a SSPEC cell the electrodes distance is minimized, while the use ...
  • Xu, Kaiqi; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Backe, Paul Hoff; Ruan, Qiushi; Junwang, Tang; Rise, Frode; Bjørås, Magnar; Norby, Truls Eivind (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    Mimicking natural photosynthesis by direct photoelectrochemical (PEC) reduction of CO2 to chemicals and fuels requires complex cell assemblies with limitations in selectivity, efficiency, cost, and stability. Here, we ...
  • Barakzehi, Marjan; Montazer, Majid; Sharif, Farhad; Norby, Truls Eivind; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    The interest in wearable supercapacitors has been flourishing in both the scientific and industrial fields. Here, daily-used polyester fabric (PET) is modified by using an Al-based MOF, namely MIL-53(Al), via a layer-by-layer ...
  • Sun, Xinwei; Xu, Kaiqi; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Norby, Truls Eivind (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    The improvement of indoor environments is of great importance as it can significantly improve human health, comfort and productivity. Herein, different forms of TiO2 nanorods were used as the photocatalyst for generation ...
  • Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Sartori, Sabrina (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    Black TiO2 has emerged as one of the most promising photocatalysts recently discovered. The reason behind its catalytic activity is considered to be due to the presence of defects and Ti3+ species at the surface of black ...
  • Xu, Kaiqi; Chatzitakis, Athanasios Eleftherios; Norby, Truls (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2017)
    We have fabricated and tested a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell where the aqueous electrolyte has been replaced by a proton conducting hydrated Nafion® polymer membrane. The membrane was sandwiched between a TiO2-based ...
