چکیده
H 2 O accumulation on the BiVO 4 photoanode via PEC water oxidation was achieved with carbon quantum dots aqueous solution as an electrolyte. The development can hopefully draw more attention to catalytic media for tailoring performance.

Branched TiO2 nanoarrays sensitized with CdS quantum dots for highly efficient photoelectrochemical water splitting.
This paper describes the design, characterization, and utilization of branched TiO2 nanoarrays sensitized with CdS quantum dots as anodes for photoelectrochemical water splitting. The remarkable photocurrent density (∼4 mA cm(-2) at a potential of 0 V versus Ag/AgCl) and high solar to hydrogen efficiency of the materials obtained were ascribed to the novel branched nanostructure and efficient e...
متن کاملGraphene-CdS quantum dots-polyoxometalate composite films for efficient photoelectrochemical water splitting and pollutant degradation.
rGO-CdS-H2W12 nanocomposite film was successfully fabricated by a layer-by-layer self-assembly method. The composite film was characterized by techniques such as UV-Vis spectra, XPS, and AFM. The composite film showed high photoelectronic response under the illumination of sunlight. Both current-voltage curves and photocurrent transient measurements demonstrated that the photocurrent response o...
متن کاملMetal–Organic Frameworks as Promising Photosensitizers for Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
Ti-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are demonstrated as promising photosensitizers for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. Photocurrents of TiO2 nano wire photoelectrodes can be improved under visible light through sensitization with aminated Ti-based MOFs. As a host, other sensitizers or catalysts such as Au nanoparticles can be incorporated into the MOF layer thus further improvi...
متن کاملEfficiency limits for photoelectrochemical water-splitting
Theoretical limiting efficiencies have a critical role in determining technological viability and expectations for device prototypes, as evidenced by the photovoltaics community's focus on detailed balance. However, due to their multicomponent nature, photoelectrochemical devices do not have an equivalent analogue to detailed balance, and reported theoretical efficiency limits vary depending on...
متن کاملGraphene quantum dots as the electrolyte for solid state supercapacitors
We propose that graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with a sufficient number of acidic oxygen-bearing functional groups such as -COOH and -OH can serve as solution- and solid- type electrolytes for supercapacitors. Moreover, we found that the ionic conductivity and ion-donating ability of the GQDs could be markedly improved by simply neutralizing their acidic functional groups by using KOH. These neut...
