For each technique, proper procedure,  benefits, limitations, and data interpretation are discussed. Consolidating this information in a short, accessible, and easy to read reference guide will allow researchers to more rapidly immerse themselves into PEC research and also better compare their results against those of other researchers to better advance materials development. This book serves as a ?how-to? guide for researchers engaged in or interested in engaging in the field of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. PEC water splitting is a rapidly growing field of research in which the goal is to develop materials which can absorb the energy from sunlight to drive electrochemical hydrogen production from the splitting of water. The substantial complexity in the scientific understanding and experimental protocols needed to sufficiently pursue accurate and reliable materials development means that a large need exists to consolidate and standardize the most common methods utilized by researchers in this field. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in energy. 606 $aPhotochemistry$xIndustrial applications 606 $aHydrogen as fuel 615 0$aPhotochemistry$xIndustrial applications. 615 0$aHydrogen as fuel. 676 $a541.37 701 $aChen$b Zhebo$0883068 701 $aDinh$b Huyen N$01751587 701 $aMiller$b Eric$01392679 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437778603321 996 $aPhotoelectrochemical water splitting$94186575 997 $aUNINA
