The number of layers (three, five and ten) followed by a successive annealing process at each deposited layer has strongly influenced their performance. The ten-layers tungsten oxide photoanode exhibited the highest photocurrent density around 0.7 mA/cm 2 at 1.23 V RHE , under sunlight irradiation. This photocurrent response corresponds to 17 % of solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency (STH) from the maximum theoretical predicted for tungsten oxide (4.8 %). The successive annealing treatment promoted a reduction in the number of grain boundaries, yielding in higher film porosity and surface roughness, which decreased the charge transfer resistance and the electron-hole recombination rate.
