Photoelectrochemical water splitting is advanced by the development of the highly efficient catalysts that promote the performance of the water splitting, while also maintaining the excellent stability for integration with the photoactive semiconductor as the light absorber. Here, we demonstrate the deposition of Ni, Co and/or their oxides thin films on the silicon wafer by the plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (ALD). The deposited thin film with the uniform properties and simultaneously provide excellent water splitting performance. Furthermore, the combined silicon, as a light absorber also been protected effectively by the deposited thin film to perform a highly efficient light absorb. The combined device provides an excellent performance for the photoelectrochemical water splitting contributed by the synergy effect of high activity deposited thin film and semiconductor.
