Abstract
The present invention discloses photostable composite of indium gallium nitride and zinc oxide for solar water splitting, comprising Indium content in the range of 1-40 wt %, Ga content in the range of 1 to 15 wt %, nitrogen content in the range of 0.1 to 5 wt %, and the remaining is ZnO. The combustion synthesis comprises the steps of: (a) dissolving 45 to 55 wt % urea, 75 to 80 wt % Zinc nitrate, 3 to 5 wt % Gallium nitrate, and 15 to 20 wt % Indium nitrate in water with stirring until a homogenous solution is formed; and (b) heating the homogenous solution of step (a) at a temperature in the range of 450-550 [deg.]C. for period in the range of 2 to 20 min to obtain the photostable composite.
