Abstract
The applicability of metal oxide heterostructures in the photocatalytic splitting of water under solar light for hydrogen generation is a highly attractive technique, and the development of novel metal oxide heterostructures or enhancing the efficacy of existing materials for hydrogen production is the principal scientific area of interest. Photoelectrochemical water splitting using metal oxides as either cathodes or photo-anodes, or both, in a single cell to generate hydrogen is a direct, greener, and long-term approach for hydrogen production. This chapter aims to describe the recent advancements in metal oxide heterostructures for efficient hydrogen generation. The fundamentals and applications of binary and ternary composite materials, which were used as cathodes and photoanodes for photoelectrochemical water splitting, are also described in detail. This chapter will be beneficial for the production of efficient metal oxides for the production of future fuel.
