Photocorrosion in aqueous environments is one of the most significant obstacles to the widespread deployment of semiconductor materials as PEC devices for solar hydrogen production. The photogenerated holes and electrons in semiconductor electrodes are generally characterized by strong oxidizing and reducing potentials, respectively. Instead of driving the OER or HER, these holes and electrons may oxidize or reduce the semiconductor itself, causing undesired physical and chemical changes.
