Description

Tungsten trioxide/manganese tungstate/cobalt tungstate photoelectrode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectrode materials, in particular to a WO 3 /MnWO 4 /CoWO 4 Photoelectrode material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The heavy use of traditional fossil energy sources leads to atmospheric CO 2 The content is increasing, which requires the development of cleaner energy sources to gradually replace fossil energy sources. The semiconductor photoelectrocatalysis technology can realize the production of hydrogen by utilizing solar energy, and provides an effective way for the generation of clean energy. The principle of the photoelectrocatalysis technology is that light is utilized to excite a semiconductor material to generate an electron-hole pair, and under the action of a small amount of external bias voltage, the electron and the hole are effectively separated. The separated electrons and hydrogen ions in the solution undergo a reduction reaction to generate hydrogen, and the holes oxidize water molecules to generate oxygen. Hydrogen production compared to two-electron reaction (i.e. 2H) + +2e=H 2 2 of H + Obtaining 2 electrons to form hydrogen gas), and generating hydrogen (namely 4e + 4H) by hole oxidation reaction with four electrons participating 2 O=2H 2 +4OH - ,4OH - =2H 2 O+O 2 +4e) reacts more slowly kinetically. Therefore, slow water oxidation reactions hinder the practical application of semiconductor photoelectrocatalytic technology.
MnWO 4 Bandgap ofAbout 2.68eV, and recent studies have shown MnWO 4 Can be used for photocatalytic decomposition of organic pollutants or hydrogen production (CdS purified MnWO) 4 A new 0D-1D hybrid system for enhanced photonic hydrogen under natural light, YA Sethi, Nanoscale Advances, 2021/01/01). However, MnWO 4 The application in the field of photoelectrocatalysis has not been reported. Furthermore, simple MnWO 4 Still poor photocatalytic activity, because of MnWO 4 The photogenerated electron and hole pairs recombine faster and the interface charge transfers slower. Thus, MnWO 4 The photocatalytic activity of (A) needs to be further improved for practical use.
The construction of a nano-heterojunction by the combination of two semiconductors is an effective way to promote the separation of semiconductor carriers, but the quality of the interface between the two semiconductors has a great influence on the separation of photogenerated carriers. For example, if the crystal lattice mismatch of the two semiconductor interfaces results in an increase in interfacial resistance, it is difficult for carriers to be effectively separated at the interfaces. Therefore, simply coupling two semiconductor combinations does not necessarily improve the photocatalytic activity of the semiconductors. In addition, if the separated carriers are not efficiently transferred into the solution, they may also cause the final recombination of carriers. Thus, semiconductor modification is required not only to promote carrier separation, but also to accelerate charge transfer of carriers at the electrode/electrolyte interface. However, conventional heterojunction interfaces often have difficulty achieving both effective carrier separation and rapid interface charge injection.
