Congratulations to Valentin, Tyler and Prof. Ping, for their recent publication in Chemistry of Materials! Perovskite-type lanthanum iron oxide, LaFeO3, is a p-type semiconductor that can achieve overall water splitting using visible light while maintaining photostability. These features make LaFeO3 a promising photocathode candidate for various photoelectrochemical cells. Currently, the photoelectrochemical performance of a LaFeO3...
