In this study hematite films are formed in a chemical vapour deposition (CVD) growth process from a ferrocene precursor. Films are formed in variable thickness on FTO (fluorine•doped tin oxide) and ITO (tin•doped indium oxide) substrates. Photo•electrochemical experiments are conducted and the effect of thickness and illumination direction discussed in the context of a water splitting process in a mesoporous Fe2O3 film. In contrast to the thin mesoporous films investigated in the previous chapter, here thicker and denser films are studied. The photo•catalytic efficiency is improved by a factor of 4 due to higher density and potential gradient effects.
