摘要：
A ZnFe2O4-ZnO nanorod array (NRA) with a three-dimensional network nanometer structure was prepared. The photoelectrochemical performance of the ZnFe2O4-ZnO NRA composite is significantly improved due to the formation of a p-n heterojunction electric field at the interface between ZnFe2O4 and ZnO, the increase of the overall utilization efficiency of incident light energy, and the visible light absorption capability of ZnFe2O4.
