Abstract

The invention relates to a cobaltosic oxide composite alpha type iron oxide vermicule nanostructure array photoanode and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of new energy materials. Through hydrothermal reaction, alpha type iron oxide grows on an electric conducting substrate in a manner of vermicule nanostructure array; cobaltosic oxide nanoparticles are continuously attached on the alpha type iron oxide by using a hydrothermal method; and high specific surface area and excellent oxygen evolution catalysis activity of the cobaltosic oxide nanoparticles are fully used for effectively inhibiting combination of electron-hole pairs, so that the performances of photoelectrolysis water are greatly improved. Meanwhile, the hydrothermal process suitable for industrialization is adopted; in the process of preparing a cobaltosic oxide modified alpha type iron oxide photoanode, used materials are low in cost, so that the production cost is reduced, and large-scale production is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new energy materials, and specifically relates to tricobalt tetroxide composite α-type iron oxide worm-like nanostructure array photoanode and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen has extremely high energy density, and as a fuel, it will not produce any pollutants and greenhouse effect, so it is a very potential energy carrier. On the other hand, solar energy is an inexhaustible clean energy source, and water is extremely abundant on the earth. Therefore, storing solar energy in hydrogen through photoelectric water splitting is a very potential method to solve the depletion of fossil fuels and the deterioration of the ecological environment today. However, since water oxidation is a four-electron process requiring molecular rearrangement, the performance of photoelectrochemical water splitting is severely limited by the anode. Hematite Fe2O3 (α-Fe 2 o 3 ) as a...
