Abstract
It has been shown that graphene is a viable option for improving water-splitting operations to produce hydrogen. The function of graphene and graphene-based materials in water splitting is critically examined in this review, with an emphasis on current developments, underlying mechanisms, and potential future applications. The most important graphene derivatives used for this purpose are graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), graphene-based metal oxides, graphene-based metal chalcogenides, graphene-based perovskites, graphene-based ternary and quaternary compounds, and graphene quantum dots (GQDs). This article may be useful for academicians, researchers, and industry persons in the area of water splitting for green hydrogen generation.
