Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to develop an anode catalyst for photo-fuel cell that consists of water oxidation for anode reaction and oxygen reduction for cathode reaction with photo-irradiation. We have succeeded in synthesizing μ-oxo trinuclear Fe complex and Ir oxide embedded in amorphous silicon for water oxidation catalysts. Further, we have constructed a photo-fuel cell using an Ir mononuclear complex and tungsten oxide (WO3) as an anode catalyst.
