In photoelectrochemical water oxidation, some groups continually report promising performance with small exposed photoelectrode area (e.g. 0.2 cm^2). Is it critical to concern photoelectrode area with counter electrode one?
Thank you Dr. Braun for elaborating background knowledge. Based on my understanding on electrochemistry, the distance, electrode area, geometry of electrode( and surface), etc, do play critical role in electrochemistry, while in practice many may neglect them or hampered by fragile instruments.
As Dr. Braun you know, my target material, hematite, suffered from several pristine drawbacks, I will tune the optimized electrochemical state of my system. Your suggestion must help a lot.
I agree with you about the viewpoint of buttom-up knowledge. There are too many published fallacious results.
