Description

Near-infrared active periodic plasma heterojunction photo-anode material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nano materials, and particularly relates to a near infrared active periodic plasma heterojunction photo-anode material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) conversion systems can effectively utilize solar energy to produce clean energy, which is beneficial to alleviating energy and environmental crisis and improving living environment. However, the low energy conversion efficiency of existing photoelectrode materials has hampered the commercial application of PEC conversion systems.
To date, most semiconductors used as photoelectrodes have a relatively wide optical bandgap, and therefore they cannot effectively utilize infrared light (λ >700 nm). However, infrared light occupies most of the energy of solar energy. In addition, photo-generated charge recombination and low surface redox kinetics of these semiconductors are also detrimental to the realization of efficient artificial photosynthesis processes.
Plasma-induced photoelectrocatalysis provides a promising solution to break through the limitations of photoelectrodes described above. In addition to widening the spectral absorption range of the photoelectrode by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) absorption, the SPR effect can also effectively enhance the photoelectrode's light absorption capacity. Meanwhile, local electromagnetic field enhancement (LEMF) and photo-thermal effects generated by the SPR effect can also effectively improve the kinetics of charge transfer and surface redox reactions. In addition, by combining plasma metal withThe semiconductor coupling can generate a Schottky barrier to promote the separation of photon-generated carriers, thereby prolonging the service life of the photon-generated carriers. Currently, most plasmonic metal/semiconductor nanostructures mainly employ a noble metal (Au, ag, etc.) in combination with a semiconductor material, such as Ag/TiO 2 Au/CdSe, etc. Although the position of the SPR resonance peak can be adjusted by changing the morphology and size of the metal particles, and thus the spectral absorption range of the material is extended, the extension range is very limited. In addition, the SPR effect is localized in spatial distribution, so that the local electromagnetic field enhancement and photothermal effects produced thereby are also non-uniform in spatial distribution. Their effect is strongest at the plasma metal surface and their intensity decays rapidly with distance. This locality limits the impact of the SPR effect on the photoelectrode performance enhancement.
Therefore, how to design a metal/semiconductor photoelectrocatalysis system which can overcome the above problems and exert the SPR effect to the maximum extent is of great importance for realizing efficient and stable solar energy-fuel conversion.

Example 2
Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Preparation of periodic heterogeneous nanostructures: 0.45mmol of Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 (0 < y < 1; in a specific embodiment, the y is preferably 0.20) nanowires, bismuth nitrate Bi (NO) in a certain amount 3 ) 3 ·5H 2 O (in the specific example, the bismuth nitrate amounts are respectively 0.15mmol, 0.45mmol and 0.75 mmol), 47mL deionized water, 10mL ethylene glycol and 1mL hydrazine hydrate are mixed and vigorously stirred uniformly, and the mixture is transferred to a polytetrafluoroethylene lining of 100mL and packaged in a stainless steel autoclave; the stainless steel autoclave was then sealed and heated at 180 ℃ for 18 hours; the heating rate of the heating reaction is 8-10 ℃/min; after the reaction is finished, cooling the mixture to room temperature; the final product Bi was collected by centrifugation (10000 rpm,3 min) x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Periodic heterogeneous nanostructures were washed 3 times with ethanol for further use.
Bi in example 2 was subjected to a transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Analyzing the periodic heterogeneous nano structure to obtain a transmission electron microscope image and an X-ray image of the periodic heterogeneous nano structure, wherein the transmission electron microscope image and the X-ray image are shown in fig. 3 and 4; as can be seen from FIG. 3, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The periodic heterogeneous nano structure is formed by uniformly dispersing and compounding Bi nano particles with periodicity on Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The nano wires are formed, and the size and distribution periodicity of the Bi nano particles can be adjusted according to the variation of the amount of Bi source added in the synthesis. As can be seen from FIG. 4, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 All diffraction peaks in the X-ray diffraction pattern of the periodic heterostructure can be attributed to Bi in the hexagonal phase 3 Se 2 (JCPDS card)40-0935, space group P-31 m) and rhombohedral Bi (JCPDS card number 44-1246, space group R-3 m).
Bi obtained in examples 1 and 2 was subjected to high resolution transmission electron microscopy 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 And (5) analyzing the periodic heterogeneous nano structure to obtain a high-resolution transmission electron microscope image of the periodic heterogeneous nano structure. As shown in fig. 5 i; bi in image x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The periodic hetero-nanostructure showed lattice spacing of 0.325nm and 0.359nm, which are respectively attributed to the (012) plane of the rhombohedral Bi and to the hexagonal Bi phase 3 Se 2 (102) crystal plane of (a). And as shown in fig. 5 ii; bi in image 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The nanowires showed a lattice spacing of 0.313nm, which is attributed to hexagonal-phase Bi 3 Se 2 (1010) crystal plane of (a).
Bi obtained in examples 1 and 2 was analyzed by an energy spectrometer 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Analyzing the periodic heterogeneous nano structure to obtain an EDS element surface distribution diagram and a linear distribution diagram of the periodic heterogeneous nano structure, as shown in fig. 6 and 7; as can be seen from FIG. 6, the Bi, se, te elements are uniformly distributed throughout Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 In nanowire structures. As can be seen from FIG. 7, the Bi, se, te elements are uniformly distributed in the nanowires, but the element distribution of the nanoparticle structure is mainly Bi elements, which fully demonstrates that it is Bi obtained in example 2 x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Periodic heterogeneous nanostructures.
Bi obtained in example 2 was examined by a Kelvin probe microscope x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Analyzing the periodic heterogeneous nano structure to obtain a height map and a surface potential distribution map under dark state and illumination conditions, as shown in fig. 8; as can be seen from FIG. 8 i, bi is synthesized in example 2 x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Periodic heterogeneous nanostructures. As can be seen from FIG. 8 ii, the surface potential of Bi nanoparticles is higher than that of Bi in the absence of light 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires, which demonstrate that the work function of the nanoparticles is greater than that of nanowires. However, as can be seen from FIG. 8 iii, under light, bi nanoparticles and Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The surface potential of the nanowires is increased, which means that a large number of photo-generated electrons are generated under illumination. As can be seen from a comparison of ii in FIG. 8 and iii in FIG. 8, bi under light 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The surface potential of the nanowires is increased more, which fully proves that the photo-generated electrons are generated from Bi nano particles to Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 And (3) transferring the nanowires.
For Bi obtained in examples 1 and 2 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The photoelectrochemical hydrogen production performance of the periodic heterogeneous nanostructure was analyzed to obtain a current-voltage profile, an incident monochromatic photon-electron conversion efficiency, a current intensity-time profile, an electrochemical impedance profile and a stability test profile, as shown in fig. 9.
The application is in the simulation of sunlight (lambda)>800nm,100mW·cm -2 ) Irradiation and Na 2 SO 3 /Na 2 S was tested for their Photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties using a photo-anode of controllable thickness as hole-sacrificial agent. By adjusting Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Ratio of nanowires to Bi to adjust Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The Bi nanoparticles in the heterogeneous nanostructures are periodic in size and distribution, and the present application optimizes the performance of these photoanodes. As shown in i in fig. 9, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The initial potential of the hetero-nanostructure photo-anode is 0.5V RHE At 0.85V RHE Exhibits a measurement of 8.3 mA.cm -2 And Bi is 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The nanowire is at 0.85V RHE Exhibits only 5.0 mA.cm -2 Is a photo-current of the (c) light source. This fully demonstrates that near infrared active periodic plasma heterojunction photoanode achieves efficient utilization of SPR effect, and further improves its PEC hydrogen production performance.
Applicants also to Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The incident monochromatic photon-electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) of the periodically heterogeneous nanostructured photoanode was tested for comparison, all samples were tested under one solar irradiation and 0.6V RHE IPCE efficiency over a given time period under bias of (C). As can be seen from FIG. 9 ii, bi is present in the range of 800-1520nm x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 IPCE ratio Bi of hetero-nanostructure photoanode 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The nanowires are high. This is a good demonstration of the rational adjustment of the size and distribution periodicity of the plasmonic metal helping to increase the efficiency of photoelectrochemical catalysis.
Applicants also to Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The transient current response and electrochemical impedance spectrum of the periodically heterogeneous nanostructured photoanode were tested for comparison, testing all samples at 0.6V RHE Is a performance manifestation of the bias voltage of (a). Meanwhile, as shown in iii in FIG. 9, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The hetero-nanostructure has a significantly stronger than Bi at a specific voltage 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Photocurrent of the nanowire. And as shown in FIG. 9 iv, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The electrochemical impedance spectrum radius of the heterogeneous nano structure is obviously smaller than Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy radius of the nanowires. This also demonstrates the superiority of near infrared active periodic plasma heterojunction.
Applicants also to Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 Nanowires and Bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The stability of the periodically heterogeneous nanostructured photoanode was tested and compared, and all samples were tested under one solar irradiation and 0.6V RHE Current-time profile under bias of (c). As shown by v in FIG. 9, bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The nanowire photo anode is at 0.6V RHE The photocurrent generated under the bias voltage of the photo-anode is gradually reduced, which indicates that the photo-generated carriers generated by the photo-anode cannot timely participate in the oxidation-reduction reaction of the surface of the photo-anode, so that the photo-corrosion reaction occurs on the photo-anode. However, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The photo-anode with the periodic heterogeneous nano structure can fully utilize the SPR effect, so that the efficient utilization of photo-generated carriers can be realized, the photo-corrosion reaction can be inhibited, and the high stability can be further realized. As shown in vi in fig. 9, bi x /Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 The photoanode of the periodic heterogeneous nano structure is at 0.6V RHE Achieve a stability of approximately 90h under bias of (c), which is far superior to Bi 3 (Se 1-y Te y ) 2 A nanowire photoanode.
From the above examples, the present invention proposes a periodic non-noble metal/semiconductor hetero-nanostructure with SPR effect. Compared to noble metals with distinct SPR formants, non-noble metals (e.g., bismuth) can produce non-radiative damping in the entire uv-near ir due to their unique interband transition processes, and thus have no distinct formants. Meanwhile, the design of the periodic heterostructure is beneficial to reducing the influence of rapid attenuation of the SPR effect on spatial distribution, so that the effective utilization of the SPR effect is realized. In addition, bismuth-based selenides have important potential applications in photocatalysis due to their unique optical properties.
