Solid-state photoelectrochemical cell prototype

A prototype device designed to capture water vapor from humid air and convert it to hydrogen and oxygen using solar energy. The device integrates polymeric electrolyte membranes, porous photoelectrodes, and water-absorbing materials in a membrane-integrated design. The first prototype achieved 70% of the performance of an equivalent water-filled device.
