Abstract

The invention provides an Al2O3 modified array TiO2 nanowire and a method for photoelectrocatalysis water decomposition hydrogen production. The Al2O3 modified array TiO2 nanowire comprises a carbon cloth substrate, an array TiO2 nanowire body growing on the carbon cloth substrate and Al2O3 layers obtained by carrying out atomic layer deposition on the surface of the array TiO2 nanowire body, and the number of the Al2O3 layers ranges from 1 to 20. A TiO2 nanowire array uniform in morphology directly grows on carbon cloth through a liquid phase hydro-thermal synthesis method, then TMA and H2O are used as precursors to evenly deposit an Al2O3 atom layer on the surface of the nanowire, and a prepared material has good photoelectrocatalysis hydrogen production performance. In addition, the method for photoelectrocatalysis water decomposition hydrogen production with the Al2O3 modified array TiO2 nanowire as a catalyst is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an Al 2 o 3 Modified Array TiO 2 The nanowire and its preparation method also relate to a method for producing hydrogen by photoelectrically decomposing water, belonging to the technical field of photocatalysis. Background technique [0002] In today's society, energy and environmental problems are becoming more and more prominent, and it is imperative to develop cleaner renewable energy sources. The use of clean and renewable solar photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen is an ideal way to solve the problem. In 1972, Japanese scientists Fujishima and Honda discovered TiO 2 The electrode can decompose water to produce hydrogen under ultraviolet light, thus opening the TiO 2 Application research of photocatalysis. TiO 2 It is the earliest n-type semiconductor studied by scientists. It is cheap, non-toxic and environmentally friendly, and has become an ideal research object for semiconductor photocatalysi...
