Tin doping speeds up hole transfer during light-driven water oxidation at hematite photoanodes.
Numerous studies have shown that the performance of hematite photoanodes for light-driven water splitting is improved substantially by doping with various metals, including tin. Although the enhanced performance has commonly been attributed to bulk effects such as increased conductivity, recent studies have noted an impact of doping on the efficiency of the interfacial transfer of holes involve...
متن کاملOnset potential behavior in α-Fe2O3 photoanodes: the influence of surface and diffusion Sn doping on the surface states.
The onset potential is an important parameter that affects the water oxidation performance of photoanodes. Herein, we investigated the behavior of the photocurrent onset potential of hematite (α-Fe2O3) photoanodes by incorporating Sn(4+) cations via external (surface overlayer) or self (underlying FTO substrate) doping. The α-Fe2O3/FTO photoanodes fabricated at both low (550 °C) and high (800 °...
متن کاملSurface 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 کاملSolution growth of Ta-doped hematite nanorods for efficient photoelectrochemical water splitting: a tradeoff between electronic structure and nanostructure evolution.
Ta-doped hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanorod array films were successfully prepared on fluorine-doped tin dioxide (FTO) coated glass substrates via a facile solution growth process with TaCl5 as a Ta doping precursor. Under 1 sun illumination and at an applied potential of 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl, the Ta-doped α-Fe2O3 photoanode with optimized dopant concentration showed a photocurrent density as high as 0.53...
متن کاملDoping-Promoted Solar Water Oxidation on Hematite Photoanodes.
As one of the most promising materials for solar water oxidation, hematite has attracted intense research interest for four decades. Despite their desirable optical band gap, stability and other attractive features, there are great challenges for the implementation of hematite-based photoelectrochemical cells. In particular, the extremely low electron mobility leads to severe energy loss by ele...
