Streszczenie:

Metal-supported catalyst with high activity and relatively simple preparation method is given priority to industrial production. In this work, this study reported an easily accessible synthesis strategy to prepare Mott-Schottky-type N-doped carbon encapsulated metallic Co (Co@Np+gC) catalyst by high-temperature pyrolysis method in which carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and dopamine were used as support and nitrogen source. The prepared Co@Np+gC presented a Mott-Schottky effect; that is, a strong electronic interaction of metallic Co and N-doped carbon shell was constructed to lead to the generation of Mott-Schottky contact. The metallic Co, due to high work function as compared to that of N-doped carbon, transferred electrons to the N-doped outer shell, forming a new contact interface. In this interface area, the positive and negative charges were redistributed, and the catalytic hydrogenation mainly occurred in the area of active charges. The Co@Np+gC catalyst showed excellent catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of phenylacetylene to styrene, and the selectivity of styrene reached 82.4%, much higher than those of reference catalysts. The reason for the promoted semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene was attributed to the electron transfer of metallic Co, as it was caused by N doping on carbon.

Streszczenie:

At present, the selective hydrogenation of α, β-unsaturated aldehydes remains a challenge due to competition between unsaturated functional groups (C=C and C=O). In this study, N-doped carbon deposited on silica-supported nickel Mott–Schottky type catalysts (Ni/SiO2@NxC) was prepared for the selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (CAL) by using the respective hydrothermal method and high-temperature carbonization method. The prepared optimal Ni/SiO2@N7C catalyst achieved 98.9% conversion and 83.1% selectivity for 3-phenylpropionaldehyde (HCAL) in the selective hydrogenation reaction of CAL. By constructing the Mott–Schottky effect, the electron transfer from metallic Ni to N-doped carbon at their contact interface was promoted, and the electron transfer was demonstrated by XPS and UPS. Experimental results indicated that by modulating the electron density of metallic Ni, the catalytic hydrogenation of C=C bonds was preferentially performed to obtain higher HCAL selectivity. Meanwhile, this work also provides an effective way to design electronically adjustable type catalysts for more selective hydrogenation reactions.

Streszczenie:

Electrochemical water splitting, composed of two half reactions: the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), is under intensive research to the development of H2 fuels to replace fossil fuels. Since both reactions are sluggish, catalysts are usually required to boost them. The state-of-the-art catalysts for both reactions are based on noble metals, such as Pt-based catalysts for HER and Ir or Ru-based catalysts for OER. Unfortunately, the high price and scarcity of these noble metals suppress the widespread application of water splitting. Hence, it is imperative to develop active, durable, low-cost and earth-abundant non-noble-metal electrocatalysts.[1] Among them, molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) has garnered tremendous attention as HER/OER catalysts owing to its Pt-like electronic structure and wide-pH-range catalytic performance. [2] Unfortunately, the catalytic activity of Mo2C towards HER or OER is still inferior to most advanced catalysts. One effective strategy to enhance electrocatalytic performance involves coupling and doping of Mo2C with late transition metals, e.g., Fe, Co, and Ni, which modifies electronic structure and adds active sites, metal-Mo2C interfaces. Unfortunately, similar to Mo2C, metal nanoparticles also tend to aggregate during preparation and operation. A semiconductive carbon catalyst support alleviating aggregation is usually the solution by not only conformally dispersing nanocatalysts but also providing heteroatom dopants and forming metal-semiconductor Mott-Schottky interface for further enhancing catalytic activity.[3] Besides the selection of catalysts with optimized structure and composition at the material level, the structure of electrodes derived from assembled catalysts at the device level also have a crucial influence on the water electrolyzer. Compared with powdery electrocatalysts with relatively large overpotential and easier peeling off from the electrode, self-supported hierarchical nanoarrayed electrodes are more promising for water electrolyzer because these electrodes facilitate transportation of charges and matter and thus reaction kinetics during HER/OER due to binder-free feature, catalysts-substrate seamless contact and highly exposed surface area.[4] We develop here the making of nickel-molybdenum carbide heterostructures embedded in large-area (100 cm2) hierarchically assembled nitrogen-enriched carbon, forming Mott-Schottky array on nickel foam (Ni-Mo2C/NC@NF).[5] The Ni-Mo2C/NC array is directly applied as the bifunctional catalyst with high activity and durability in alkaline electrolyte. Particularly, an extremely low overpotential of 40 mV is needed to generate hydrogen. Density functional theory calculation revealed that the formation of Ni-Mo2C Mott/NC Schottky interfaces enables favorable electronic structures for electrocatalytic water splitting. Besides, 3D hierarchical structure provides exposed active sites, facilitates mass and charge transfer, graphitic shells enhance stability. A symmetric electrolyzer using Ni-Mo2C/NC@NF generates 10 mA cm-2 at 1.59 V and operates steadily for 150 h, which even outperforms the noble metal couple, Pt/C//RuO2 for water electrolysis. The scalability, activity and durability renders Ni-Mo2C/NC@NF potential industrial application. Reference 1. M. Walter, N. Lewis et al, Chem. Rev. 2010, 110, 11, 6446. 2. M. Miao, B. Y. Xia, X.

This paper reports the photocatalytic decomposition of methylene blue (MB) over titania doped copper ferrite, CuFe2O4/TiO2 with 50 wt% loading, synthesized via sol-gel method. The synthesized photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV-vis diffuse reflectance, and photoluminescence, Mott-Schottky (MS) analysis and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). The catalyst loadings were varied from 0.25 – 1.0 g/L and the optimum catalyst loading found to be 0.5 g/L. At the optimum loading, the conversion achieved was 83.7%. The other loadings produced slightly lower conversions at 82.7%, 80.6% and 80.0%, corresponding to 0.25, 1 and 0.75 g/L after 3 hours of irradiation. The study on the effect of initial concentration indicated that 20 ppm as the optimum concentration, tested with 0.5 g/L catalyst loading. The spent catalyst was used for the recyclability test and demonstrated a high longevity with a degradation efficiency less than 6 % for each time interval. The novelty of this study lies on the new application of photocatalytic material, CuFe2O4/TiO2 on thiazine dye that shows remarkable activity and reusability performance under visible light irradiation.

Streszczenie:

The development of a highly efficient, visible-light responsive catalyst for environment purification has been a long-standing exploit, with obstacles to overcome, including inefficient capture of near-infrared photons, undesirable recombination of photo-generated carriers, and insufficient accessible reaction sites. Hence, novel carbon quantum dots (CQDs) modified PbBiO2I photocatalyst were synthesized for the first time through an in-situ ionic liquid-induced method. The bridging function of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium iodide ([Bmim]I) guarantees the even dispersion of CQDs around PbBiO2I surface, for synchronically overcoming the above drawbacks and markedly promoting the degradation efficiency of organic contaminants: (i) CQDs decoration harness solar photons in the near-infrared region; (ii) particular delocalized conjugated construction of CQDs strength via the utilization of photo-induced carriers; (iii) π–π interactions increase the contact between catalyst and organic molecules. Benefiting from these distinguished features, the optimized CQDs/PbBiO2I nanocomposite displays significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance towards the elimination of rhodamine B and ciprofloxacin under visible/near-infrared light irradiation. The spin-trapping ESR analysis demonstrates that CQDs modification can boost the concentration of reactive oxygen species (O2•−). Combined with radicals trapping tests, valence-band spectra, and Mott–Schottky results, a possible photocatalytic mechanism is proposed. This work establishes a significant milestone in constructing CQDs-modified, bismuth-based catalysts for solar energy conversion applications.

In this work, p-type CuFe2O4 was synthesized by sol gel method. The prepared CuFe2O4 was used as photocathode catalyst for photoelectrochemical (PEC) CO2 reduction. The XRD, UV-Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis), and Mott-Schottky (MS) experiments were done to characterize the catalyst. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) was employed to evaluate the visible light (λ>400 nm) effect of this catalyst for CO2 reduction. The band gap energy of the catalyst was calculated from the UV-Vis and was found 1.30 eV. Flat band potential of the prepared CuFe2O4 was also calculated and found 0.27 V versus Ag/AgCl. Under light irradiation in the CO2-saturated NaHCO3 solution, a remarkable current development associated with CO2 reduction was found during LSV for the prepared electrode from onset potential -0.89 V with a peak current emerged at -1.01 V (vs Ag/AgCl) representing the occurrence of CO2 reduction reaction. In addition, the mechanism of PEC was proposed for the photocathode where the necessity of a bias potential in the range of 0.27 to ~ -1.0 V vs Ag/AgCl was identified which could effectively inhibit the electron-hole (e-/h+) recombination process leading to an enhancement of CO2 reduction reactions.

Streszczenie:

Poplar pretreated by steam explosion was used as an adsorbent to simulate the adsorption process of nickel ion in wastewater. The result of kinetics suggested that the pseudo-second-order model was well suited to describing the adsorption of nickel ion. Through controlled adsorption, steam-exploded poplar was recycled after Ni2+ adsorption and then reduced to carbon-supported nickel catalyst (NiC700). Spectrum analyses of Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), Brunauer Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, and electrochemical tests were applied to study the properties of the NiC700 relative to the control carbonized materials having no Ni (C700). The FTIR analysis revealed that there were chemical interactions and ion changes between OH, C–H, C=O, and heavy metal ions in the bio-adsorption process of nickel. The surface area of NiC700 was 1480 m2/g. The presence of Ni nanoparticles in NiC700 after reduction was confirmed by the XRD and XPS analyses. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), photocurrent (IT), and Mott Schottky curve results revealed that the conduction band potential of NiC700 (ECB, NiC700) was -0.10 eV vs. RHE (reversible hydrogen electrode) as an n-type semiconductor, and the Ni-doped carbon fiber exhibited certain electrophotocatalytic activity due to the nickel modification.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a widely used and well studied photocatalyst synthesized using different methodologies, including sol-gel, which allows one to modify the material in a one-pot step. By using a microwave- and sonochemistry-assisted sol-gel method, x wt.% Au-TiO2 photocatalysts were successfully synthesized. Physicochemical characterization of the photocatalysts shows an average crystallite size of 10.5 nm and an even morphological distribution of spherical particles with the sonochemistry synthesis method. For the microwave method an average value of crystallite size of 8.3 nm was found and it presents an increase with the amount of Au load. The cyclic voltammetric response and Mott-Schottky analysis are consistent with a semiconductor material containing metallic particles and for a heterophase junction of anatase and brookite with oxygen vacancies, respectively. The photocatalytic activity was assessed by paracetamol degradation in an aqueous solution as model. The sonochemistry-synthesized photocatalysts display the most promising results as they have a better paracetamol removal and the amount of gold in the catalyst (0.7 wt.%) was found to be optimal for this process.

Streszczenie:

A simple wet chemical ultrasonic-assisted synthesis method was employed to prepare visible light-driven g-C3N4-ZnO-Co3O4 (GZC) heterojunction photocatalysts. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electromicroscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), ultraviolet (UV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are used to characterize the prepared catalysts. XRD confirms the homogenous phase formation of g-C3N4, ZnO, and Co3O4, and the heterogeneous phase for the composites. The synthesized ZnO and Co3O4 by using cellulose as a template show a rod-like morphology. The specific surface area of the catalytic samples increases due to the cellulose template. The measurements of the energy band gap of a g-C3N4-ZnO-Co3O4 composite showed red-shifted optical absorption to the visible range. The photoluminescence (PL) intensity decreases due to the formation of heterojunction. The PL quenching and EIS result shows that the reduction of the recombination rate and interfacial resistance result in charge carrier kinetic improvement in the catalyst. The photocatalytic performance in the degradation of MB dye of the GZC-3 composite was about 8.2-, 3.3-, and 2.5-fold more than that of the g-C3N4, g-C3N4-ZnO, and g-C3N4-Co3O4 samples. The Mott–Schottky plots of the flat band edge position of g-C3N4, ZnO, Co3O4, and Z-scheme g-C3N4-ZnO-Co3O4 photocatalysts may be created. Based on the stability experiment, GZC-3 shows greater photocatalytic activity after four recycling cycles. As a result, the GZC composite is environmentally friendly and efficient photocatalyst and has the potential to consider in the treatment of dye-contaminated wastewater.

A hydrothermal method was successfully employed to synthesize kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and optical ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy were used for characterization of structural, chemical, morphological, and optical properties. XRD results confirmed that a nanocrystalline CZTS phase corresponding to the kesterite structure was formed. Raman analysis confirmed the existence of single pure phase CZTS. XPS results revealed the oxidation states as Cu+, Zn2+, Sn4+, and S2−. FESEM and TEM micrograph images revealed the presence of nanoparticles with average sizes between 7 nm to 60 nm. The synthesized CZTS nanoparticles bandgap was found to be 1.5 eV which is optimal for solar photocatalytic degradation applications. The properties as a semiconductor material were evaluated through the Mott–Schottky analysis. The photocatalytic activity of CZTS has been investigated through photodegradation of Congo red azo dye solution under solar simulation light irradiation, proving to be an excellent photo-catalyst for CR where 90.2% degradation could be achieved in just 60 min. Furthermore, the prepared CZTS was reusable and can be repeatedly used to remove Congo red dye from aqueous solutions.

Abstract Here, we report the enhanced photoelectrochemical performance of surface modified hematite thin films with n-type copper oxide nanostructures (Cu2O/Fe2O3) obtained through simple electrochemical deposition method. The thickness and amount of cuprous oxide layer were varied by simply changing the number of electrodeposition cycles (viz. 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100) in order to understand its thermodynamic and kinetic influence on the photoelectrochemical activity of the resultant nano-heterostructures. Structural and morphological characteristics of the obtained Cu2O/Fe2O3 films have been studied by absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. Electrochemical investigations such as linear sweep voltammetry, Mott–Schottky analysis, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy suggested the formation of n-type Cu2O layers over the hematite films with varying charge-carrier densities, ranging from 0.56×1019 to 3.94×1019 cm−3, that varies with the number of cycles of electrochemical deposition. Besides, the thickness of deposited cuprous oxide layer is noted to alter the net electrochemical and photo-electrochemical response of the base material. An interesting, peak event was recorded for a particular thickness of the cuprous oxide layer (obtained after 25 cycles of electrochemical deposition) below and above which the efficiency of catalyst was impaired. The heterojunction obtained thus, followed well known Z-scheme and gave appreciable increment in the photocurrent response.

A metal-assisted chemical etching process employing p-type silicon wafers with varied etching durations is used to produce silicon nanowires. Silver nanoparticles prepared by chemical deposition are utilized as a catalyst in the formation of silicon nanowires. Images from field emission scanning electron microscopy confirmed that the diameter of SiNWs grows when the etching duration is increased. The photoelectrochemical cell's characteristics were investigated using p-type silicon nanowires as working electrodes. Linear sweep voltammetry (J-V) measurements on p-SiNWs confirmed that photocurrent density rose from 0.20 mA cm-2 to 0.92 mA cm-2 as the etching duration of prepared SiNWs increased from 15 to 30 min. The conversion efficiency (ƞ) was 0.47 for p-SiNWs prepared with a 15-minute etching time and 0.75 for p-SiNWs prepared with a 30-minute etching time. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) experiments performed at various scan rates validated the faradic behavior of p-SiNWS prepared for 15 and 30 min of etching. Because of the slow ion diffusion and the increased scanning rate, the capacitance decreased with increasing scanning rate. Mott-Schottky (M-S) investigation showed a significant carriers concentration of 3.66×1020 cm-3. According to the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the SiNWs photocathode prepared by etching for 30 min had a charge transfer resistance of 25.27 Ω, which is low enough to enhance interfacial charge transfer.

Tungsten trioxide (WO3) is a photocatalyst that has gained interest amongst researchers because of its non-toxicity, narrow band gap and superior charge transport. Due to its fast charge recombination, modification is vital to counteract this limitation. In this paper, we report on the fabrication of Mn-doped WO3/SnS2 nanoparticles, which were synthesised with the aim of minimising the recombination rates of the photogenerated species. The nanomaterials were characterised using spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis-diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Raman, XRD, photoluminescence (PL) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)) together with microscopic techniques (FESEM-EDS and high resolution transmission electron microscopy selected area electron diffraction (HRTEM-SAED)) to confirm the successful formation of Mn-WO3/SnS2 nanoparticles. The Mn-doped WO3/SnS2 composite was a mixture of monoclinic and hexagonal phases, confirmed by XRD and Raman analysis. The Mn-WO3/SnS2 heterojunction showed enhanced optical properties compared to those of the un-doped WO3/SnS2 nanoparticles, which confirms the successful charge separation. The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis indicated that the nanoparticles were mesoporous as they exhibited a Type IV isotherm. These nanomaterials appeared as a mixture of rectangular rods and sheet-like shapes with an increased surface area (77.14 m2/g) and pore volume (0.0641 cm3/g). The electrochemical measurements indicated a high current density (0.030 mA/cm2) and low charge transfer resistance (157.16 Ω) of the Mn-WO3/SnS2 heterojunction, which infers a high charge separation, also complemented by photoluminescence with low emission peak intensity. The Mott–Schottky (M-S) plot indicated a positive slope characteristic of an n–n heterojunction semiconductor, indicating that electrons are the major charge carriers. Thus, the efficiency of Mn-WO3/SnS2 heterojunction photocatalyst was monitored for the degradation of chlorpyrifos. The effects of pH (3–9), catalyst loading (0.1–2 g) and initial chlorpyrifos concentration (100 ppb–20 ppm) were studied. It was observed that the degradation was purely due to photocatalysis, as no loss of chlorpyrifos was observed within 30 min in the dark. Chlorpyrifos removal using Mn-WO3/SnS2 was performed at the optimum conditions of pH = 7, catalyst loading = 1 g and chlorpyrifos concentration = 1000 ppb in 90 min. The complete degradation of chlorpyrifos and its major degradation by-product 3,5,6-trichloropyridin-2-ol (TCP) was achieved. Kinetic studies deduced a second order reaction at 209 × 10−3 M−1s−1.

Efficient hybrid photocatalysts for carbon dioxide reduction were developed from dye-sensitized TiO₂ nanoparticles and their catalytic performance was optimized by ternary organic/inorganic components. Thus, the hybrid system consists of (E)-2-cyano-3-(5′-(5′′-(p-(diphenylamino)phenyl)thiophen-2′′-yl)thiophen-2′-yl)-acrylic acid as a sensitizer and fac-[Re(4,4′-bis(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-2,2′-bipyridine)(CO)₃Cl] as a reduction catalyst (ReP), both of which have been fixed onto TiO₂ semiconductors (s-TiO₂, h-TiO₂, d-TiO₂). Mott–Schottky analysis on flat-band potential (E_fb) of TiO₂ mesoporous films has verified that E_fb can be finely modulated by volume variation of water (0 to 20 vol%). The increase of added water resulted in substantial positive shifts of E_fb from −1.93 V at 0 vol% H₂O, to −1.74 V (3 vol% H₂O), to −1.56 V (10 vol% H₂O), and to −1.47 V (20 vol% H₂O). As a result, with addition of 3–10 vol% water in the photocatalytic reaction, conversion efficiency of CO₂ to CO increased significantly reaching a TON value of ∼350 for 30 h. Catalytic activity enhancement is mainly attributed to (1) the optimum alignment of E_fb by 3–10 vol% water with respect to the of the dye and E_red of ReP for smooth electron transfer from photo-excited dye to RePvia the TiO₂ semiconductor and (2) the water-induced acceleration of chemical processes on the fixed ReP. In addition, the energy level was further tuned by variation of the dye and ReP amounts. We also found that the intrinsic properties of TiO₂ sources (morphology, size, agglomeration) exert a great influence on the overall photocatalytic activity of this hybrid system. Implications of the present observations and reaction mechanisms are discussed in detail.

The development of efficient non-precious metal electrocatalysts through more economical and safe methods is consistent with the goals of sustainable development and accelerating the achievement of “carbon neutrality” in the 21st century but remains potentially challenging. Mott–Schottky heterojunction interfaces generated from metal/semiconductor have been a hot topic of recent research because of the unique built-in electric field effect which allows the preparation of more superior catalysts for water electrolysis. Herein, a glutinous rice potpourri-like Mott–Schottky two-dimensional (2D) nanosheet (abbreviated as Ni/CeO2 HJ-NSs) electrocatalyst composed of metal nickel (Ni) and cerium oxide (CeO2) hetero-nanoparticles was synthesized by a simple and scalable self-assembly and thermal reduction strategy. The experimental results and mechanistic analysis show that the Mott–Schottky heterojunction interface composed of metallic Ni and n-type semiconductor CeO2 with built-in electric field induces the electron redistribution at the interface to accelerate the dissociation of water and the binding of reaction intermediates, thus achieving lower water dissociation energy and more thermoneutral ΔGH* value to expedite the kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Thus, the prepared Ni/CeO2 HJ-NSs exhibit excellent HER catalytic performance in 1 M KOH electrolyte with an overpotential of only 72 mV at 10 mA cm−2, as well as a moderate Tafel slope of 65 mV dec−1 and an extraordinary long-term stability over 50 h, laying a solid foundation for further in-depth investigation. The synthesis of splendid electrocatalysts by exploiting the metal/semiconductor interface effect provides an innovative way for the future generation of Mott–Schottky-based heterostructures with three or more heterocompositions with two or more heterojunction interfaces.

The use of titanium dioxide for tackling environmental pollution has attracted great research interest recently. The potential of a photocatalyst in removing contaminants depends mainly on its conduction and valence-band edges relative to the standard potential of reactive oxygen species. One of the methods used in determining these band-edge positions is via the Mott–Schottky analysis. Thus, the aim of this work was to investigate the influence of the Mott–Schottky frequency and different electrochemical conditions on flat-band potential values and band-edge positions of pure anatase or Degussa P25, calcined or uncalcined in a 0.2 M Na2SO4 solution. The results showed that the shift in the flat-band potential was not so frequency-dependent in the Mott–Schottky analysis, however, other reasons, such as immersion duration leading to thenardite Na2SO4 salt deposition on the surface, irradiation of sources and the change in the pH of the solution (in the range of 1.64–12.11) were also responsible for it. In general, both the calcined anatase and P25 had a less negative value of the flat-band potential compared to the uncalcined. On the other hand, the calcined anatase had a tendency to have a less negative value of the flat-band potential than the calcined P25. From this study, the frequency range for obtaining the flat-band potential within one standard deviation in the Mott–Schottky at a single-frequency analysis was found to be between 200 and 2000 Hz. The energy difference between the Fermi level and the conduction band edge for anatase and P25, either calcined or uncalcined, was 0.097–0.186 and 0.084–0.192 eV, respectively. On the other hand, the band-edge position of anatase or P25 tended to shift upwards when it was repeatedly used in the photoelectrochemical analysis.

On Oct. 4, 2021, Hydrogen energy ministerial meeting (H2 EM 2021) was held by the ministry of economy, trade and industry (METI) of Japanese government as online special event with cabinet members and officials from 29 countries, regions, and organizations. In the meeting, “Global Hydrogen Review 2021” and was released to propose the policy toward hydrogen-based society. In the open session, the water electrolysis was one of the main session, and participants shared their commitment to improve the performance of water electrolysis units and optimize the relevant systems with a view toward reducing the costs of “Green Hydrogen”, and exchanged views on topics including the future prospects for the “Green Hydrogen” market [1]. Here, “Green Hydrogen” is the hydrogen which is produced by the electricity from renewable energies introducing in our previous study [2]. Alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) has already commercialized all over the world and recently applied its system for the Power-to-Gas (PtG) in Europe and Japan such as Fukushima hydrogen energy research field (FH2R). In the FH2R, one of the largest module of AWE has operated from 2020. However, we found that the degradation of Ni anode occurs operating by variable renewable energy (VNE) from our previous report [3]. From this point of view, the alternative anode with high durability against VNE should be required for green hydrogen production. We focused on zirconium oxide-based electrocatalyst (ZrOx) and have studied its catalytic activity for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) [4]. In this study, we have investigated the activity and durability of ZrOx with and without Mo addition for the OER in alkaline solution. Zr compound films were formed on Ti rods as a base material, using the R.F. magnetron sputtering. Gas atmosphere in the chamber was a mixture of Ar and O2 gas. After polishing and washing, the Ti rods were heated at 300 oC for Zr oxide-based film without any addition (ZrOx), and 350 oC for Zr oxide-based film with Mn addition (Mn-ZrOx). Sputtering power and sputtering time were fixed at 150 W and 20 min, respectively. All electrochemical measurements were carried out using a three-electrode cell at 30 oC in 7 M KOH. A reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and a carbon plate were used as a reference and a counter electrode, respectively. ZrOx or Mo-ZrOx was used as working electrode. In order to evaluate the catalytic activity for the OER, slow scan voltammetry (SSV) was performed under N2 atmosphere. Current density (i geo) was based on the geometric surface area of the working electrode. The resistance of the film (R film) and charge transfer (R ct) was evaluated by AC impedance spectroscopic measurements in the frequency range from 105 to 10−1 Hz. Figure 1 shows polarization curves of ZrOx and Mo-ZrOx. The i geo for the OER on Mo-ZrOx has obviously larger than that of ZrOx. According to the cyclic voltammograms (CV) of both sample, the electric double layer (C dl) of Mo-ZrOx from CV was larger than that of ZrOx. This trend was similar to the result reported in previous study [5], and it is suggested that the C dl becomes larger by the effect of Mo addition. From the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), both ZrOx and Mo-ZrOx are n-type semiconductor. Moreover, the slope of Mott-Schottky plot on Mo-ZrOx was more gentle than that on ZrOx and it is suggested that the electric conductivity of Mo-ZrOx was larger than that of ZrOx. Thus, the reason why the i geo for the OER on Mo-ZrOx has larger than that of ZrOx is that both improvement of the increase of C dl and the electric conductivity of sample.

Abstract Photocatalytic dehydrogenation of formic acid (FA) at room temperature is a promising way to meet the increasing demand for hydrogen energy. In this work, we loaded nanoparticles of plasmonic AuPd alloys on the acetylene functionalized covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) for the design of Mott-Schottky catalysts (AuPd/CTFs) with further application to photocatalytic hydrogen production from FA. Experimental data showed that the introduction of acetylene (-C≡C-) unit and AuPd alloy into the CTF could significantly enhance the performance of hydrogen evolution. The results of photoelectrochemical tests showed that the introduction of carbon-carbon triple bonds and AuPd alloy could adjust the electronic structure of CTF and inhibit charge recombination. Thus, benefiting from these positive effects, the FA photocatalytic decomposition by the obtained AuPd-CTF-EDDBN photocatalyst yielded H2 at a good rate of 10600 μmol·gcat −1·h−1.

Fe-Ce/layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized via a facile route by exploiting the “structural memory” of the LDH when the calcined MgAlLDH and ZnAlLDH were reconstructed in the aqueous solutions of FeSO4/Ce(SO4)2. XRD analysis shows the formation of heterostructured catalysts that entangle the structural characteristics of the LDHs with those of Fe2O3 and CeO2. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, TG/DTG, SEM/EDX and TEM results reveal a complex morphology defined by the large nano/microplates of the reconstructed LDHs that are tightly covered with nanoparticles of Fe2O3 and CeO2. Calcination at 850 °C promoted the formation of highly crystallized mixed oxides of Fe2O3/CeO2/ZnO and spinels. The photo-electrochemical behavior of Fe-Ce/LDHs and their derived oxides was studied in a three-electrode photo-electrochemical cell, using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), Mott–Schottky (M-S) analysis and photo-electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (PEIS) measurements, in dark or under illumination. When tested as novel catalysts for the degradation of phenol from aqueous solutions, the light-driven catalytic heterojunctions of Fe-Ce/LDH and their derived oxides reveal their capabilities to efficiently remove phenol from water, under both UV and solar irradiation.

The photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals is considered to be a green and sustainable technology, and has recently gained considerable research interest. In this work, titanium dioxide (TiO2) supported Pt, Pd, Ni, and Cu catalysts were synthesized by photodeposition. The formation of various metal species on an anatase TiO2 surface, after ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation, was investigated insightfully by the X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) technique. CO2 reduction under UV-light irradiation at an ambient pressure was demonstrated. To gain an insight into the charge recombination rate during reduction, the catalysts were carefully investigated by the intensity modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The catalytic behaviors of the catalysts were investigated by density functional theory using the self-consistent Hubbard U-correction (DFT+U) approach. In addition, Mott–Schottky measurement was employed to study the effect of energy band alignment of metal-semiconductor on CO2 photoreduction. Heterojunction formed at Pt-, Pd-, Ni-, and Cu-TiO2 interface has crucial roles on the charge recombination and the catalytic behaviors. Furthermore, it was found that Pt-TiO2 provides the highest methanol yield of 17.85 µmol/gcat/h, and CO as a minor product. According to the IMPS data, Pt-TiO2 has the best charge transfer ability, with the mean electron transit time of 4.513 µs. We believe that this extensive study on the junction between TiO2 could provide a profound understanding of catalytic behaviors, which will pave the way for rational designs of novel catalysts with improved photocatalytic performance for CO2 reduction.

AbstractStructural reconstruction of nanomaterials offers a fantastic way to regulate the electronic structure of active sites and promote their catalytic activities. However, how to properly facilitate surface reconstruction to overcome large overpotential that stimulate the surface reconstruction has remained elusive. Herein, we adopt a facile approach to activate surface reconstruction on Ni(OH)2 by incorporating F anions to achieve electro-derived structural oxidation process and further boost its oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity. Ex situ Raman and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy studies indicate that F ions incorporation facilitated surface reconstruction and promotes the original Ni(OH)2 transformed into a mesoporous and amorphous F-NiOOH layer during the electrochemical process. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation reveals that this self-reconstructed NiOOH induces a space-charge effect on the p-n junction interface, which not only promotes the absorption of intermediates species (*OH, *O, and *OOH) and charge-transfer process during catalysis, but also leads to a strong interaction of the p-n junction interface to stabilize the materials. This work opens up a new possibility to regulate the electronic structure of active sites and promote their catalytic activities.

P-n heterojunction-structured CuFe2O4/MgFe2O4 hollow spheres with a diameter of 250 nm were synthesized using a template-free solvothermal method, and time-dependent morphological studies were carried out to investigate the hollow formation mechanism. The CuFe2O4/MgFe2O4 with a molar ratio of 1:2 (Cu:Mg) had the highest degradation efficiency with the model organic dye Acid Orange 7, with a degradation rate of 91.96% over 60 min. The synthesized CuFe2O4/MgFe2O4 nanocomposites were characterized by XRD, TEM, HRTEM, UV-vis spectroscopy, Mott–Schottky, and EIS. Due to the synthesis of the p-n heterojunction, CuFe2O4/MgFe2O4 has efficient photogenerated carriers, and the hollow structure has a higher specific surface area and stronger adsorption capacity, which is significantly better than that of CuFe2O4 and MgFe2O4 in terms of photocatalytic performance. The outstanding performance shows that the p-n heterostructure of CuFe2O4/MgFe2O4 has potential for application in wastewater degradation.

Electrocatalytic hydrogen production using inexpensive catalysts and solar energy has become a critical research direction due to its economic interest and environmental friendliness. Photoresponsive semiconductors play a key role in this field. In this work, we demonstrate visible light-responsive, mixed-valence, molybdenum oxide (MoO3−x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) thin films with oxygen vacancies that are electrochemically deposited in a period of seconds through an ammonium heptamolybdate electrolyte. XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, EPR, Raman, and electrochemical techniques (Linear Sweep Voltammetry, Chronoamperometry, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, Tafel analysis) have been utilized to characterize the MoO3−x films. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and the Mott-Schottky (MS) plot reveal that the as-deposited semiconductive MoO3−x film possesses an optical bandgap of ∼2.53 eV and a flat band potential of ∼0.40 eV, respectively. The MoO3−x films exhibit up to 152% electrocatalytic current improvement in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) upon illumination with visible light compared to in the dark. The superior electrocatalytic activity of the as-deposited MoO3−x films under illumination is attributed to the lower bandgap, lower overpotential, decreased electronic resistivity, and a smaller Tafel slope. Our experimental exploration suggests that MoO3−x can be potentially applied as an effective, low-cost electrode material for high-performance solar energy-assisted hydrogen fuel production.

Perovskite-type oxides lanthanum ferrite (LaFeO3) photocatalysts were successfully prepared by a facile and cost-effective sol-gel method using La(NO)3 and Fe(NO)3 as metal ion precursors and citric acid as a complexing agent at different calcination temperatures. The properties of the resulting LaFeO3 samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectra (IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption/desorption and photoelectrochemical tests. The photoactivity of the LaFeO3 samples was tested by monitoring the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) and 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) under visible light irradiation, the highest photocatalytic activity was found for LaFeO3 calcined at 700 °C, which attributed to the relatively highest surface area (10.6 m2/g). In addition, it was found from trapping experiments that the reactive species for degradation were superoxide radical ions (O2−) and holes (h+). Photocurrent measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) proved the higher photo-induced charge carrier transfer and separation efficiency of the LaFeO3 sample calcined at 700 °C compared to that that calcined at 900 °C. Band positions of LaFeO3 were estimated using the Mott-Schottky plots, which showed that H2 evolution was not likely.

Herein, we have successfully prepared self-doped carbon dots with nitrogen elements (NCD) in a simple one-pot hydrothermal carbonization method, using L-histidine as a new precursor. The effect of as-prepared carbon dots was studied for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting by decorating NCDs upon TiO2 nanorods systematically by changing the loading time from 2 h to 8 h (TiO2@NCD2h, TiO2@NCD4h, TiO2@NCD6h, and TiO2@NCD8h). The successful decorating of NCDs on TiO2 was confirmed by FE-TEM and Raman spectroscopy. The TiO2@NCD4h has shown a photocurrent density of 2.51 mA.cm−2, 3.4 times higher than the pristine TiO2. Moreover, TiO2@NCD4h exhibited 12% higher applied bias photon-to-current efficiency (ABPE) than the pristine TiO2. The detailed IPCE, Mott–Schottky, and impedance (EIS) analyses have revealed the enhanced light harvesting property, free carrier concentration, charge separation, and transportation upon introduction of the NCDs on TiO2. The obtained results clearly portray the key role of NCDs in improving the PEC performance, providing a new insight into the development of highly competent TiO2 and NCDs based photoanodes for PEC water splitting.

Streszczenie:

Composite photocatalysts are crucial for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. In this work, ZrO2/CdSe-diethylenetriamine (ZrO2/CdSe-DETA) heterojunction nanocomposites are synthesized, and efficiently and stably catalyzed hydrogen evolution under visible light. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) confirm the formation of heterojunctions between ZrO2 (ZO) and CdSe-DETA (CS). Ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-vis DRS), Mott–Schottky, and theoretical calculations confirm that the mechanism at the heterojunction of the ZrO2/CdSe-DETA (ZO/CS) nanocomposites is Type-I. Among the ZO/CS nanocomposites (ZO/CS-0.4, ZO/CS-0.6, and ZO/CS-0.8; in the nanocomposites, the mass ratio of ZO to CS is 0.1:0.0765, 0.1:0.1148, and 0.1:0.1531, respectively). ZO/CS-0.6 nanocomposite has the best photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity (4.27 mmol g−1 h−1), which is significantly higher than ZO (trace) and CS (1.75 mmol g−1 h−1). Within four cycles, the ZO/CS-0.6 nanocomposite maintains an efficient catalytic hydrogen evolution rate. Due to the existence of the heterojunction of the composites, the photogenerated electron-hole pairs can be effectively separated, which accelerates the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction and reduces the progress of photocorrosion. This work reveals the feasibility of ZO/CS nanocomposite photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution.

Streszczenie:

Towards nonconventional wastewater treatment methods for the degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater, a perovskite-based photoelectrochemical system was developed. Bismuth ferrite doped with lanthanum (La-BiFeO3, La-BFO) perovskite was synthesised through a hydrothermal method with low calcination temperature for the photoelectrochemical degradation of orange II dye and other cocktails of dyes. Photoanodes were prepared by the deposition of the perovskites on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate. The photoanodes were characterised using XRD, FESEM, FTIR and UV-vis diffuse reflectance. The photoelectrochemical properties of the synthesised photoanodes were investigated with chronoamperometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (including Mott–Schottky analysis). The results show that all La3+-doped BFO photoanodes exhibited a higher absorption edge in the visible light region than the undoped BFO. The photocurrent response of 10% La-BFO (the best performing electrode) exhibited a three times higher current response than the pure BFO. In addition, the electrode exhibited a good degradation efficiency of 84.2% within 120 min with applied bias potential of 2 V at a pH of 7. EIS studies showed a significant enhancement of the interfacial electron transfer of the charge carriers. The enhancements in electrode performances were attributed to the synergistic effect of the applied bias potential and the introduction of La3+ into the BFO matrix. This study therefore shows that the photoelectrocatalytic performance of BFO for water treatment can be improved by the introduction of perovskites-doping ions such as La3+.

Streszczenie:

In this paper, we investigate the magnetron sputtering deposition of an Al-layer on Zr-doped FeOOH (Zr-FeOOH) samples to fabricate a Zr/Al co-doped Fe2O3 (Al-Zr/HT) photoanode. An Al-layer is deposited onto Zr-FeOOH through magnetron sputtering and the thickness of the Al deposition is regulated by differing the sputtering time. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, intensity-modulated photocurrent spectroscopy, Mott-Schottky and time-resolved photoluminescence spectra analyses were used to study, in depth, the correlations between sputtered Al-layer thicknesses and PEC characteristics. High-temperature quenching (800 °C) assists in diffusing the Al3+ in the bulk of the Zr-doped Fe2O3 photoanode, whilst an unintended Al2O3 passivation layer forms on the surface. The optimized Al-Zr/HT photoelectrode achieved 0.945 mA/cm2 at 1.0 VRHE, which is 3-fold higher than that of the bare Zr/HT photoanode. The Al2O3 passivation layer causes a 100 mV cathodic shift in the onset potential. Al co-doping improved the donor density, thus reducing the electron transit time. In addition, the passivation effect of the Al2O3 layer ameliorated the surface charge transfer kinetics. The Al2O3 passivation layer suppressed the surface charge transfer resistance, consequently expediting the hole migration from photoanode to electrolyte. We believe that the thickness-controlled Al-layer sputtering approach could be applicable for various metal oxide photoanodes to lower the onset potential.
