Conclusions
- Ceria-based materials are the most promising materials for Solar Fuels- Doping yields significant improvements
- Data of equilibrium measurements (varying T and p(O2)) can feed physical reaction model yielding a δ(T, p(O2))-function that can be used to construct Ellingham diagrams (reduction enthalpy and entropy)
