Rh2−yCryO3/GaN:ZnO has been tested for gas phase overall photocatalytic water splitting by dosing vapor. The sample deposited in a μ-reactor and evolves hydrogen oxygen under illumination of solar light. This experiment proves the possibility to study active materials mechanism reaction with experiments. high impact relative humidity on activity shown changing partial pressure reactor temperature.
