Tubular end-capped electrodeposited CdSe nanofibers: Enhanced photochemistry

Here, we report for the first time tubular end-capped nanofibers of CdSe on ITO substrates that have been developed using electrodeposition chemistry. We investigated the surface morphology and extended further to examine photoelectrochemical performance. As-formed ITO/CdSe/polysulphide/Pt photoelectrochemical cell showed 2% photo-conversion efficiency under 80 mW/cm2 light intensity, when used in the photoelectrochemical-type cells.
