Abstract

X. D. Wang, Z. Cai, and co-workers demonstrate on page 2262 a cellulose-nanofiber (CNF)-enabled capillary photo-electrochemical (PEC) photoanode for performing water-splitting reactions outside of the electrolyte body, mimicking the water-transmission process in plants. Driven by the capillary force, the electrolyte transmits through the nano-/microchannels in the CNF film and reaches the photocatalyst sites. Enhanced reaction kinetics and higher efficiency can be achieved by the capillary PEC process.
