Abstract

Aqueous chemically grown ZnO nanorods (NRs) arrays were sensitized by CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and were investigated as photoanode for photoelectrochemical water splitting under visible light illumination. Significant enhancement of the factors 1.6 and 6 was observed for CdSe (QD)-sensitized nonannealed and annealed samples of ZnO NRs over pristine ZnO NRs arrays, respectively. The highest photocurrent density of was registered for the annealed CdSe (QD)/ZnO (NR) arrays films at zero applied voltage and (AM 1.5 G, Air Mass 1.5 Global) power density and their corresponding photocurrent density for pristine ZnO NR array was recorded as .
