Problems solved by technology

Although this method improves the surface structure of ZnO, it cannot be used on TiO due to immersion in zinc acetate-ethanol solution. 2 The surface of the film is uniformly dispersed, resulting in the local accumulation of ZnO seeds on the TiO 2 The surface of the film cannot be uniformly dispersed, and finally ZnO in TiO 2 Thick core-shell structure ZnO / TiO is grown on the surface of the film 2 , the specific surface area of ​​the ZnO layer with this stacked structure is still small, the light absorption is poor, and the photoelectrocatalytic activity and stability are poor.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a ZnO / TiO2 heterojunction thin-film material through spin-coating. The preparation method comprises the following steps: controlling the spin-coating rotation speed and the spin-coating frequency of a spin-coating zinc acetate-ethanol solution to control the uniform distribution degree and density of ZnO seed crystals, and growing ZnO nanowires on theZnO seed crystals under hydrothermal conditions to prepare the ZnO / TiO2 heterogeneous material with a nest-shaped structure. The ZnO / TiO2 film obtained in the invention has the advantages of large specific surface area, high optical absorption performance, high photoelectric efficiency and high charge transfer efficiency, and can be widely used in the fields of photoelectrocatalysis for hydrogenproduction, photoelectrocatalytic degradation of organic matters and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology in the field of photoelectric catalysis, in particular to a method for preparing ZnO / TiO by spin coating 2 A method for heterojunction thin film materials. Background technique [0002] Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) as a photoelectrocatalytic photoanode has the advantages of suitable conduction band / valence band positions, abundant reserves, low price, non-toxicity, and good stability. But TiO 2 The wide band gap energy (anatase ~ 3.2eV, rutile ~ 3.0eV) can only absorb ultraviolet light, and the kinetics of carrier separation and transport are very slow. In the prior art, zinc oxide (ZnO) is used to modify TiO 2 ZnO / TiO 2 Heterojunction film as an improved photoelectrode due to its higher electron mobility based on ZnO (ZnO nanowire: 1000cm 2 V s -1 ) and the potential for excellent photogenerated charge separation efficiency based on the good energy-level matching relationship between the two.
