▎ 摘　　要

NOVELTY - An electrolyzer cell comprises (a) container capable of retaining a liquid electrolyte (9); (b) photoelectrode, 1st electrode (3), and 2nd electrode (2), where either (i) photoelectrode is a photoanode (1), 1st electrode is a cathode and 2nd electrode is an anode, or (ii) the photoelectrode is a photocathode, 1st electrode is an anode and 2nd electrode is a cathode, where 1st electrode divides the container into separate 1st and 2nd chambers each capable of retaining a liquid electrolyte (6), photoelectrode is disposed in 1st chamber and 2nd electrode in 2nd chamber; (c) container permitting greater than or equal to 1 portion of radiation impinging to reach the photoelectrode; (d) container having a 1st aperture arranged to remove gas generated at 1st electrode and greater than or equal to 1 2nd aperture arranged to remove gas generated at 2nd electrode and/or the photoelectrode; and (e) photoelectrode is electrically connected to 1st electrode, and voltage source is arranged to provide a voltage difference between electrodes. USE - An electrolyzer cell for electrolyzer panel used for effecting electrolysis (all claimed). ADVANTAGE - The electrolyzer employs light, photoelectrode, and electrode to reduce the amount of external electricity required for electrolysis and other electrochemical devices. The electrode is a photoelectrode arranged to receive radiation impinging upon the exterior of the electrochemical cell and to absorb infra-red radiation and heat the electrolyte, thus, improving electrolysis efficiency. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for: (1) electrolyzer panel; (2) effecting electrolysis; and (3) electrochemical cell. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic cross-sectional view of the solar-assisted electrolyzer cell. Photoanode (1) 2nd electrode (2) 1st electrode (3) Electrolyte (6) Container capable of retaining a liquid electrolyte (9)
