摘要
This paper describes the combinational surface kinetics enhancement and surface states passivation of nickel-borate (Ni-B-i) co-catalyst for a hematite (Fe2O3) photoanode. The Ni-B-i-modified Fe2O3 photoanode exhibits a cathodic onset potential shift of 230 mV and a 2.3-fold enhancement of the photocurrent at 1.23 V, versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). The borate (B-i) in the Ni-B-i film promotes the release of protons for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). (C) 2017 THE AUTHORS.
