چکیده
We report a simple approach for preparing undoped and Pt-doped Fe(2)O(3) thin films with excellent photoactivity via facile hydrothermal growth. The photocurrent densities of undoped and Pt-doped Fe(2)O(3) thin films were recorded up to 1.2 and 1.38 mA cm(-2) at 0.23 V Ag/AgCl under 1 sun illumination, respectively.

Surface Engineered Doping of Hematite Nanorod Arrays for Improved Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
Given the narrow band gap enabling excellent optical absorption, increased charge carrier density and accelerated surface oxidation reaction kinetics become the key points for improved photoelectrochemical performances for water splitting over hematite (α-Fe2O3) photoanodes. In this study, a facile and inexpensive method was demonstrated to develop core/shell structured α-Fe2O3 nanorod arrays. ...

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 کاملDevelopment of a Potential Fe2O3-Based Photocatalyst Thin Film for Water Oxidation by Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy: Effects of Ag−Fe2O3 Nanocomposite and Sn Doping
Ag-Fe2O3 and Sn-doped Ag-Fe2O3 nanocomposite photocatalysts were optimized by scanning photoelectrochemical microscopy (SPECM) as a potential photoelectrochemical material for visible light irradiation (λ g 420 nm). The photocurrent vs potential response and the action spectra were investigated in a three-electrode cell. Among different mole ratios, the composition of nanocomposite with 50%Ag-5...
