摘要

Solar hydrogen devices combine the power of photovoltaics and water electrolysis to produce hydrogen in a hybrid form of energy production. To engineer these into integrated devices ( i.e. a water splitting catalyst on top of a PV element), the need exists for thin film catalysts that are both transparent for solar light and efficient in water splitting. Manganese oxides have already been shown to exhibit good water splitting performance, which can be further enhanced by conformal coating on high surface-area structures. The latter can be achieved by atomic layer deposition (ALD). However, to optimize the catalytic and transparency properties of the water splitting layer, an excellent control over the oxidation state of the manganese in the film is required. So far MnO, Mn _(3) O _(4) and MnO _(2) ALD have been shown, while Mn _(2) O _(3) is the most promising catalyst. Therefore, we investigated the post-deposition oxidation and reduction of MnO and MnO _(2) ALD films, and derived strategies to achieve every phase in the MnO–MnO _(2) range by tuning the ALD process and post-ALD annealing conditions. Thin film Mn _(2) O _(3) is obtained by thermal reduction of ALD MnO _(2) , without the need for oxidative high temperature treatments. The obtained Mn _(2) O _(3) is examined for solar water splitting devices, and compared to the as-deposited MnO _(2) . Both thin films show oxygen evolution activity and good solar light transmission.
