The invention relates to a
nanorod alpha-
ferric oxide composite MIL-101
heterojunction photo-
anode and a preparation method thereof. According to the technical scheme, the preparation method comprisesthe following steps: dissolving 0.6-0.9 part by
mass of
ferric trichloride hexahydrate and 0.1-0.4 part by
mass of
urea into 50 parts by
mass of deionized water, and performing stirring so as to obtain a precursor solution of alpha-
ferric oxide; putting conductive glass of which the conductive surface faces to an inner wall into a reaction kettle, further transferring the precursor solution of alpha-ferric
oxide into the reaction kettle, performing a
hydrothermal reaction, performing washing, and performing
drying; putting a hydroxyl
iron oxide nanorod array obtained after
drying into a
crucible, respectively keeping temperatures at 400-700 DEG C and 500-800 DEG C respectively so as to obtain a Fe2O3
nanorod array, finally putting the Fe2O3 nanorod array and
terephthalic acid into the
tail end and the middle end of a tubular furnace in sequence, and performing
chemical vapor deposition in the presence of
argon at 200-800 DEG C, so as to obtain the nanorod alpha-ferric oxide compositeMIL-101
heterojunction photo-
anode. The preparation method is simple in process and good in
operability, and the obtained product has good photoelectric catalytic water oxidation performance.
