Abstract

The invention discloses an amorphous molybdenum sulfide film modified silicon photocathode and a preparation method thereof, belong to the field of photoelectrocatalytic semiconductor materials, and provides a method for simply and efficiently preparing the amorphous molybdenum sulfide film modified silicon photocathode under mild conditions. According to the method, soluble thiomolybdate is usedas a reaction raw material, and amorphous molybdenum sulfide is controllably deposited on a silicon photocathode in situ in a hydrofluoric acid solution medium through a simple normal-temperature liquid-phase oxidation-reduction effect with the surface of a silicon wafer; the thickness of the amorphous molybdenum sulfide thin film can be controlled simply by changing the concentration and reactiontime of the thiomolybdate, and the raw material cost and the preparation efficiency are superior to those in the prior art; and the obtained amorphous molybdenum sulfide and the silicon photocathodehave a tight interface bonding effect, so that high-efficiency photo-induced electron transmission is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectric catalysis semiconductor materials, and in particular relates to a silicon photocathode modified with an amorphous molybdenum sulfide film and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Photocatalytic pure water splitting and carbon dioxide reduction is a very effective way to develop and convert solar energy, and the key and most basic factor in determining the photocatalytic performance is the need to use a suitable and effective semiconductor photocathode. Among many semiconductors, silicon, which is abundant and cheap, is the most promising small bandgap semiconductor (1.12eV), whose bandgap absorption almost perfectly matches the near-infrared light and visible light in the solar spectrum The energy band structure can fully meet the requirements of the semiconductor conduction band position for photocatalytic pure water splitting and carbon dioxide reduction. However, t...
