Synergistic Cocatalytic Effect of Carbon Nanodots and Co3O4 Nanoclusters for the Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation on Hematite

Abstract

Cocatalysis plays an important role in enhancing the activity of semiconductor photocatalysts for solar water splitting. Compared to a single cocatalyst configuration, a cocatalytic system consisting of multiple components with different functions may realize outstanding enhancement through their interactions, yet limited research has been reported. Herein we describe the synergistic cocatalytic effect between carbon nanodots (CDots) and Co 3 O 4, which promotes the photoelectrochemical water oxidation activity of the Fe 2 O 3 photoanode with a 60 mV cathodically shifted onset potential. The C/Co 3 O 4‐Fe 2 O 3 photoanode exhibits a photocurrent density of 1.48 mA cm−2 at 1.23 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode), 78 % higher than that of the bare Fe 2 O 3 photoanode. The slow reaction process on the single Co III‐OH site of the Co 3 O 4 cocatalyst, oxidizing H 2 O to H 2 O 2 with two photogenerated holes, could be accelerated by the timely H 2 O 2 oxidation to O 2 catalyzed on CDots.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
