Article Synopsis
- Hematite is a catalyst used in photoelectrochemical water-splitting cells, but understanding its interaction with water and the underlying mechanisms for oxygen production is limited.
- The study uses Fe-terminated hematite surfaces to propose a detailed mechanism for oxygen evolution, highlighting key reactive intermediates identified through advanced molecular dynamics simulations.
- The research suggests that how water interacts with these intermediates impacts the reaction process, and it notes that the desorption of oxygen is crucial since its adsorption can hinder further reactions by blocking active sites.
