摘要
A layered porous β-Bi2O3 photoanode was prepared on the fluorine-doped tin oxide(FTO) glass by the chemical bath deposition method. To improve the photoelectrochemical(PEC) performance, bismuth sulfide nanocrystals were in situ prepared on the surface of β-Bi2O3 by the successive ion layer adsorption reaction method (SILAR). Bi2S3 nanocrystals would act as sensitizer and expand the light absorption ability of the pristine Bi2O3. The results reveal that Bi2S3/β-Bi2O3 heterojunction is constructed, which can significantly enhance the optical response of the material to visible light. At the light intensity of 100 mW/cm2 and bias potential of 1.2 V (vs RHE), the photocurrent density of the as-prepared Bi2S3/β-Bi2O3 photoanode reaches 2.6 mA/cm2 in 1 mol/L Na2SO4 solution, showing promoted PEC activity. © 2022, Central South University Press.
