Abstract

The invention discloses a NiO / CdSe / MoS2 laminar composite photocathode and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) with ITO conductive glass as a base, preparing a uniform and consistent nickel oxide layer employing a hydrothermal process; (2) loading cadmium selenide on the surface of nickel oxide by adopting an ion alternate adsorption method; and (3) with a NiO / CdSe electrode as a cathode, and (NH4)2[MoS4] as a deposition liquid, depositing MoS2 particles on the surface of the NiO / CdSe electrode by adopting a light-assisted potentiostatic deposition method, so as to obtain a MoS2-modified electrode. According to the method for preparing the photocathode, the amounts of an absorption agent and a cocatalyst are controllable; and under visible light irradiation, the composite photocathode shows good photoelectrocatalytic activity and visible light response characteristics, is stable in performance, and can be effectively applied to the field of photoelectrocatalysis of water decomposition to produce hydrogen.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen, in particular to a layered composite electrode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a future energy carrier, hydrogen has received extensive attention due to its clean nature. One of the efficient and potential hydrogen production methods is photoelectric water splitting to produce hydrogen, which can capture and store solar energy in the simplest chemical bond (H 2 ) without any unwanted contaminants. The photoelectric device is composed of two different electrodes: a photoanode and a photocathode, which respectively undergo oxidation and reduction reactions of water. As a half-reaction for hydrogen production, the construction of highly efficient, low-cost, and stable photocathode still faces great challenges. [0003] As a P-type semiconductor that transfers holes, NiO has a wide band gap, good the...
