Iron oxide (α-Fe2O3) in hematite crystalline structure and tungsten trioxide have recently attracted much attention as possibly convenient materials to be used for hydrogen production via photoelectrochemical water splitting. Thius is due to their favorable properties such as band gaps between 2.0 - 2.2 eV (α-Fe2O3) and 2.5–2.8 eV (WO3) which allows absorbing of a substantial fraction of solar spectrum.
