Due to different acceleration conditions of the particles in the de Laval nozzle, these carrier gases allow to investigate the influence of the impact energy of the particles on the binding mechanism and thus the resulting photocurrent density in the OER. Photoelectrochemical activities, structural properties as well as the electrode structure are correlated in order to discuss the history of the semiconductor and its photoelectrochemical properties evoked in the CGS process. Surface photovoltage measurements are considered to analyze the charge carrier dynamics in the porous TiO2 film. For the gas carrier nitrogen, beneficial conditions for the particle-to-particle and particle-to-substrate coupling are provided due to the sufficient temperature and velocity of the particles.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cattod.2015.06.007} (DOI).
