Abstract
Abstract Solar‐driven photoelectrochemical (PEC) hydrogen evolution is a promising and sustainable approach to convert solar energy into a fuel that can be stored. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are increasingly used in PEC devices due to their broad composition/size/shape tunable absorption spectrum (from ultraviolet to near‐infrared, with significant overlap with the solar spectrum). Despite significant efforts and recent progress, several major challenges remain unresolved in this fast‐developing field. Here, the latest progress in tailoring the materials, structure, and performance of QDs‐based PEC H 2 generation, including photoanodes, photocathodes, and tandem PEC systems, is summarized. In particular, recent strategies developed for PEC H 2 generation are critically analyzed. Specific features of QDs (e.g., size/shape/composition‐tunable absorption band edge arising from quantum confinement, ease of fabrication through chemical approaches, and multiple exciton generation), charge generation, and charge transfer of photoelectrodes and their implications on the performance of PEC devices are discussed. Future challenges and opportunities working, toward high‐efficiency and stable QDs‐based PEC applications are discussed in the conclusion.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
