An approach to the study of the photocharacteristics of amorphous semiconductor/electrolyte junctions is proposed which takes into account the main differences in the electronic structure and the transport properties of the amorphous semiconductors (a-SC) with respect to the crystalline counterparts. The influence of the wavelength of the incident light on the photocurrent vs electrode potential curves is explained on the basis of the geminate recombination theory in a-SC. The implications of the model are shortly discussed.
