Hematite photoanodes modified with an Fe(III) water oxidation catalyst.
Hematite photoelectrodes prepared via a hydrothermal route are functionalized with a water oxidation catalyst consisting of amorphous Fe(III) oxide, obtained by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction. The performances of the catalyst-modified photoanodes are considerably higher than those of the parent electrodes, resulting in a nearly doubled photoanodic current in all the basic aqueou...
متن کاملPhotoelectrochemical Behavior of a Molecular Ru-Based Water-Oxidation Catalyst Bound to TiO2-Protected Si Photoanodes.
A hybrid photoanode based on a molecular water oxidation precatalyst was prepared from TiO2-protected n- or p+-Si coated with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) and the ruthenium-based water oxidation precatalyst [RuIV(tda)(py-pyr)2(O)], 1(O) (tda2- is [2,2':6',2″-terpyridine]-6,6″-dicarboxylato and py-pir is 4-(pyren-1-yl)-N-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)butanamide). The Ru complex was immobilized by π-...
متن کاملThermally stable N2-intercalated WO3 photoanodes for water oxidation.
We describe stable intercalation compounds of the composition xN(2)·WO(3) (x = 0.034-0.039), formed by trapping N(2) in WO(3). The incorporation of N(2) significantly reduced the absorption threshold of WO(3); notably, 0.039N(2)·WO(3) anodes exhibited photocurrent under illumination at wavelengths ≤640 nm with a faradaic efficiency for O(2) evolution in 1.0 M HClO(4)(aq) of nearly unity. Spectr...
متن کاملPlasmon-enhanced nanoporous BiVO4 photoanodes for efficient photoelectrochemical water oxidation.
Conversion of solar irradiation into chemical fuels such as hydrogen with the use of a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell is an attractive strategy for green energy. The promising technique of incorporating metal nanoparticles (NPs) in the photoelectrodes is being explored to enhance the performance of the photoelectrodes. In this work, we developed Au-NPs-functionalized nanoporous BiVO4 photoanod...
متن کاملWhen Electrochemistry Met Methane: Rapid Catalyst Oxidation Fuels Hydrocarbon Functionalization
Modern energy challenges have motivated the development of electrochemical transformations of abundant feedstocks into valuable fuels and commodity chemicals. Now, reporting in ACS Central Science, Surendranath and co-workers introduce an electrochemical strategy that enables an organic transformation long-considered a grand challenge: selective methane activation. Methane, the primary componen...
