Erfan Omid My friendly advise. What you mostly need is a very knowledgeable superwisor.

Asad Ali Zaidi

You may get some information about devices used for this purpose on flowing link

Regards,

Erfan Omid

Thank you so much for your information.

Mohamed S. Mahmoud

Dear Erfan

You need to decide about the catalyst the will be used for photocatalystic water splitting

1- catalyst preparation (chemicals, precursors, lab equipment, dryer and sometime furnace

2- catalyst characterization (SEM, XRD, UV-VIS spectrum, XPS etc)

3- application ( simulated solar light (mercury, xenon arc , etc), or real solar light (measure solar intensity))

4- Hydrogen detection

Thank you so much for your assistance.

we have needed things to prepare catalysts and I would like to know about the equipment to measure Hydrogen and application.

Shall we have Gas Chromatography for detecting hydrogen?

Yes you need GC (TCD) or simple hydrogen gas detector

pleases see this link

Yurii V Geletii

Thank you so much.

Hou Honghao

You need the closed gas circulation apparatus. And read the history about overall water splitting.

Thank you for your response. Would you please introduce me some sources?

Abdul Qayum

Read the highly cited articles in this field. you can download it from web of science and google. it will give you enough knowledge.

Thank you so much

Elahe Bolhasani

Dear Mr. Omid,

You need a glass cell in which a quartz piece is used to transfer full spectrum of light(if you need the UV wavelengths absorbed by your cathode/anode). Furthermore, it is necessary to have a electroanalyzer to perform the photo electrochemical measurements. I recommend you to refer to my thesis document in the library of FNST. Please contact me should you need more detailed information.
