Working as a photocathode for water splitting, they exhibited a 45% larger photocurrent density compared with un-protected counterparts and a high Faraday efficiency of 91%, and can also maintain a record-long highly-stable performance among narrow-bandgap III-V NW photoelectrodes; after 67 hours photoelectrochemical stability test reaction in strong acid electrolyte solution (pH = 1), they show no apparent indication of corrosion, which is in stark contrast to the un-protected NWs that are fully failed after 35-hours.
