Abstract

Correction for ‘The effect of recombination under short-circuit conditions on the determination of charge transport properties in nanostructured photoelectrodes’ by J. Villanueva-Cab et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2016, 18, 2303–2308.


On page 2304 of the published article, eqn (1) should be amended as shown below:

In addition, Fig. 2 in the published article should be replaced with the revised version below:

Fig. 2 Diffusion coefficient as function of charge density. Comparison between measured (SLIT) values and the model predictions for three different recombination rate constants: k0 = 0 (ηSS,coll = 99.5% at 1 Sun), k0 = 2.718 × 10−3 s−1 (ηSS,coll = 99% at 1 Sun) and k0 = 0.12 s−1 (ηSS,coll = 80% at 1 Sun). When recombination takes place under short circuit conditions, the diffusion coefficient is overestimated, which can be erroneously interpreted as a trap distribution of α′ = 0.333. See the text for details.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
