Shining light on integrity of a tetracobalt-polyoxometalate water oxidation catalyst by X-ray spectroscopy before and after catalysis.
Modification of the Co-oxo cores of cobalt-polyoxometalate water oxidation catalysts is detectable by X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) as demonstrated by comparison of Na10[Co4(H2O)2(PW9O34)2] (1) and Na17[((Co(H2O))Co2PW9O34)2(PW6O26)] (2). XAS reveals the integrity of 1 uncompromised by oxidant-driven water oxidation, which proceeds without formation of catalytic cobalt oxide.
متن کاملDesigned synthesis of a series of zwitterion-polyoxometalate hybrid materials for selective scavenging and photolysis of dyes.
Zwitterions and polyoxometalates (POMs) are two kinds of functional moieties with very different properties for applications in different fields. We have developed an effective strategy to successfully immobilize these two different moieties into the frameworks of porous hybrid materials, in which the POM units act as templates and photoactive moieties. These hybrid materials demonstrate remark...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic oxidation of organic compounds in a hybrid system composed of a molecular catalyst and visible light-absorbing semiconductor.
Photocatalytic oxidation of organic compounds proceeded efficiently in a hybrid system with ruthenium aqua complexes as catalysts, BiVO4 as a light absorber, [Co(NH3)5Cl](2+) as a sacrificial electron acceptor and water as an oxygen source. The photogenerated holes in the semiconductor are used to oxidize molecular catalysts into the high-valent Ru(IV)=O intermediates for 2e(-) oxidation.
متن کاملElectrodeposited Co-Pi Catalyst on α-Fe2O3 Photoanode for Water-Splitting Applications
Optoelectronic properties of hematite (α-Fe2O3) as a photoanode and the required over-potential in photo-assisted water splitting has been improved by presence of Co-Pi on its surface. In order to increase the lifetime of the photogenerated holes and lower the applied bias, cobalt-phosphate (Co-Pi) on nanostructured α-Fe2O3 by electrodeposition was de...
متن کاملImproving the efficiency of water splitting in dye-sensitized solar cells by using a biomimetic electron transfer mediator.
Photoelectrochemical water splitting directly converts solar energy to chemical energy stored in hydrogen, a high energy density fuel. Although water splitting using semiconductor photoelectrodes has been studied for more than 40 years, it has only recently been demonstrated using dye-sensitized electrodes. The quantum yield for water splitting in these dye-based systems has, so far, been very ...
