Abstract

More than one mechanism is required to account for the photoinduced movement of charge across semiconductor-electrolyte junctions. Distinguishing the various mechanisms, which is here accomplished using a synthesis of theoretical ideas from both solid-state physics and electrochemistry, may have important consequences in research related to potential applications of liquid junction devices in solar energy conversion.
