The present report describes the fabrication of undoped NiO and Cu doped NiO based photocathodes synthesized by sol gel spin coating technique. Mott-Schottky, LSV and EIS measurements have been carried out to investigate the PEC properties of these photocathodes. 3% Cu doped NiO film exhibits the hi...
