Many metal compounds such as oxides, sulphides, selenides or tellurides, act as semiconductors, and suitable transition metal complexes behave as photosensitizers for photogalvanic or photoelctrochemical water splitting process, leading to production of dihydrogen, a fuel which will ultimately replace fossil fuels in future. Details of hydrogen production mechanism to be technically viable have been duscussed.
