Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to semiconductor photoelectrocatalysielectrode and decompose aquatic products hydrogen technical field, relate to a kind of preparation method of novel photocathode.
Background technology
In the past few decades, the energy and environmental problem have become one of most important and most popular theme in the world.Compare and fossil fuel, Hydrogen Energy has higher calorific value as a kind of fuel of environmental sound, almost higher than four times of methane.Due to this possibility producing a kind of clean energy resource carrier and do not have carbon dioxide to produce, decomposing aquatic products hydrogen and attracted considerable attention, is also the opportunity in energy storage field.The most effectively to produce one of hydrogen mode be photoelectric decomposition aquatic products hydrogen, and this mode can catch and store solar energy in the simplest chemical bond and generate without any pollutant.Generally speaking, photoelectric decomposition water device is made up of two kinds of different optoelectronic poles: photocathode and photo cathode, reduction and the oxidation reaction of water occur respectively under sunlight.No matter photo cathode or photocathode are made up of three components usually, n-type semiconductor or p-type semiconductor, sensitising agent and co-catalyst.
For an optoelectronic pole, light absorber is its key components, and the semiconductor of its sensitization broad stopband available is coupled with a kind of co-catalyst again, can be used for promoting the generation of chemical energy on electrode.Organic dyestuff, is the sensitising agent that the first generation occurs, but when carrying out sensitized photoelectrodes with it, due to the desorb of dye molecule or the leaching of catalyst, is easy to degrade.The sulphur system cadmium compound occurred subsequently can make full use of full spectrum sunlight because it has suitable energy gap, and preparation method is simple, applied range, and changes light abstraction width by the size controlling particle, therefore likely replaces organic dyestuff.But, because the toxic of cadmium element and earth's crust content do not enrich, thus limit the extensive use of cadmium system chalcogen compound.Therefore, develop a kind of novel, nontoxic, at a low price, effective and stable light absorber is significant.In addition, in order to accelerate electro transfer, reduce the compound in electronics and hole and improve hydrogen generation efficiency, certain co-catalyst is also necessary.
Recent years, a kind of novel non-metal optical catalyst g-C
3n
4potential using value due to it has attracted the attention of a lot of research worker, and it may be used for photocatalysis Decomposition aquatic products hydrogen, photocatalysis degradation organic contaminant and photocatalysis organic synthesis.G-C
3n
4have suitable energy gap can absorbing wavelength at the light of 450nm.In addition, g-C
3n
4have excellent chemistry and thermodynamic stability and outstanding characteristic electron.In Photocatalyzed Hydrogen Production, based on g-C
3n
4photochemical catalyst much studied.Recently, again You Liangge seminar g-C
3n
4as eelctro-catalyst, under lower overpotential, illustrate excellent catalytic activity.In sum, g-C
3n
4not only can be used as sensitising agent and also can make the catalytic activity that co-catalyst improves system.But, relevant g-C at present
3n
4the research of the Optical Electro-Chemistry aspect of sensitized photoelectrodes is also less.Based on this, we intend to design one g-C
3n
4the photocathode of sensitization, for decomposing aquatic products hydrogen.Nickel oxide (NiO), as a kind of p-type semiconductor, is identified a kind of substrate of outstanding conduction hole.Having one can effectively transfer to hole in NiO compared with the valence band electromotive force of NiO corrigendum, therefore the present invention with this bi-material construct a kind of novel with stable composite type photocathode for photoelectric decomposition aquatic products hydrogen.
As far as our knowledge goes, at present also not about g-C
3n
4the report that photocathode produces hydrogen is coupled as with NiO.In the present invention, we use water heat transfer NiO electrode, and then with simple thermal polymerization method g-C
3n

3n
4/ NiO electrode can obtain higher photocurrent response value at 0V (vsRHE), 10 times of this value the chances are independent NiO electrode and be independent g-C
3n
420 times of electrode big.In addition, we have studied the charge transfer characteristic of this catalytic process with photic fluorescence analysis and impedance spectrum, have also been made certain discussion to the mechanism that the photoelectric properties of this combination electrode improve.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of novel product hydrogen photocathode g-C
3n
4the preparation method of/NiO and its product hydrogen application, this electrode has very high stability in long-time course of reaction.Under illumination, g-C
3n
4/ NiO electrode can obtain higher photocurrent response value at 0V (vsRHE), 10 times of this value the chances are independent NiO electrode and be independent g-C
3n
420 times of electrode big.The electrode be produced illustrates preferably catalytic activity, long stability and higher faradic efficiency and preparation method is simple.
Object of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
Employing hydro thermal method, thermal polymerization prepare g-C
3n
4/ NiO electrode, step is made up of 3 steps.
(1) surface preparation of FTO electro-conductive glass
