Electrochemically hydrogenated TiO2 nanotubes with improved photoelectrochemical water splitting performance
One-dimensional anodic titanium oxide (ATO) nanotube arrays hold great potential as photoanode for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. In this work, we report a facile and eco-friendly electrochemical hydrogenation method to modify the electronic and PEC properties of ATO nanotube films. The hydrogenated ATO (ATO-H) electrodes present a significantly improved photocurrent of 0.65 mA/cm2...
متن کاملTiO2 and Fe2O3 films for photoelectrochemical water splitting.
Titanium oxide (TiO2) and iron oxide (α-Fe2O3) hematite films have potential applications as photoanodes in electrochemical water splitting. In the present work TiO2 and α-Fe2O3 thin films were prepared by two methods, e.g., sol-gel and High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS) and judged on the basis of physical properties such as crystalline structure and surface topography and functio...
متن کاملControlled fabrication of Sn/TiO2 nanorods for photoelectrochemical water splitting
In this work, we investigate the controlled fabrication of Sn-doped TiO2 nanorods (Sn/TiO2 NRs) for photoelectrochemical water splitting. Sn is incorporated into the rutile TiO2 nanorods with Sn/Ti molar ratios ranging from 0% to 3% by a simple solvothermal synthesis method. The obtained Sn/TiO2 NRs are single crystalline with a rutile structure. The concentration of Sn in the final nanorods ca...
متن کاملSupersonic aerosol-deposited TiO2 photoelectrodes for photoelectrochemical solar water splitting
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water-splitting is a promising approach for economical and environmentally friendly hydrogen production. We report here the preparation of nanocrystalline TiO2 films by aerosol deposition (AD) and their performance as photoelectrodes for PEC water splitting. The AD deposited films, 0.5 to 4 mm in thickness, were analyzed to establish the dependence of water splitting ...
متن کاملNonstoichiometric rutile TiO2 photoelectrodes for improved photoelectrochemical water splitting.
A new type of nonstoichiometric rutile titanium dioxide (TiO2) film with around 15 at% oxygen vacancies homogeneously distributed throughout the bulk was prepared. The resultant films, when used as a photoelectrode, showed a photoelectrochemical water splitting activity 1.7 times that of stoichiometric TiO2 at a bias of 0.9 V vs. Ag/AgCl. This is believed to result from the synergistic effect o...
