Solar Water Splitting In article number 2000037 , Ibbi Y. Ahmet, Roel van de Krol, and co‐workers fabricate a tandem monolithic nanostructured dual photoanode consisting of n‐Si/SiO x /TiO 2 /WO 3 /BiVO 4 /Fe(Ni)OOH using a scalable chemical deposition processes. The interfacial layers between the n‐Si and BiVO 4 dual absorber layers are crucial to enhance the photocurrent density and overall photovoltage, which subsequently enables unassisted solar water splitting.
