Abstract
A solar-assisted microbial fuel cell (MFC) was prepared with flower-like CuInS 2 (CIS) as the photocathode. CIS with flower flakes and monodispersity could be beneficial to electron transfer under irradiation. The solar MFC achieved a maximum power density of 0.108 mW cm −2 and a current density of 0.62 mA cm −2 .
Key findings
- CuInS2 photocathode enhances electron transfer under irradiation
- Solar MFC achieved a maximum power density of 0.108 mW cm⁻²
- Current density of 0.62 mA cm⁻² was achieved
