Abstract

The electrochemical characteristics of electrodes based on n-InSe were investigated in acid and basic electrolytes in dark and under light. The influence of surface modification by zinc and intercalation of lithium ions into volume on the photoelectrochemical characteristics of crystal were shown. The shift of dark- and light potentials to cathode direction under the both methods of modification and the loss of photosensibility under potentials closed to the water reduction potential were established.
