Abstract

An innovative photo-enhanced aqueous redox battery (PEARB) built upon a simple two-electrode configuration is demonstrated. The synergy of the photo-cathode and battery-anode is realized by directly growing vertically oriented SnS2 arrays on Ti mesh, manifesting advanced photo-electrocatalytic activities. The assembled PEARB achieves 2.5-fold capacity enhancement under solar illumination.
