Abstract

Hydrogen production through photoelectrochemical water splitting has attracted intensive research interest for being a promising clean source of energy in the future. In the last decade, two-dimensional graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have made a great contribution in enhancing solar water splitting performance. This chapter provides a short overview of major applications that graphene and TMDs could find in photoelectrochemical cells for hydrogen generation.
