Abstract

The invention discloses a photoelectrode material based on an InGaN / organic heterostructure as well as a preparation method and application of the photoelectrode material. The photoelectrode material comprises a Si substrate, an InGaN nano column arranged on the Si substrate, and an organic material layer arranged on the upper surface of the InGaN nano column, and the organic material layer is a non-fullerene material layer. The organic material IT-4F is used, so that the absorption spectrum range of the photoelectrode material is widened, surface charge recombination is effectively passivated, meanwhile, dissociation and transmission of charge carriers and reduction reaction of the charge carriers on an electrode / electrolyte interface are promoted through a heterostructure formed by the organic material IT-4F and the InGaN nanorods, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is greatly improved; therefore, hydrogen production by photoelectrochemical water decomposition without bias voltage is realized, and an effective strategy is provided for efficiently converting solar energy into hydrogen energy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of InGaN nano-pillars, in particular to an InGaN / organic heterostructure-based photoelectrode material and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Unbiased photoelectrochemical water splitting for hydrogen production shows great potential in solving the global energy crisis and environmental problems. InGaN nanopillars with tunable band gap (E g 0.65eV~3.4eV), the light absorption can be adjusted by adjusting the indium composition, thus becoming an ideal candidate for photoelectrodes. Moreover, InGaN nanopillars have suitable band positions for water redox reactions, long charge diffusion distances, high electron mobility, high specific surface area, and outstanding theoretical solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiency (~27%) ), making the InGaN nanopillars beneficial for photoelectrochemical total water splitting. However, the fast recombination of bulk and surface charges and slow ox...
