AI Technical Summary
Existing ZnO photocatalysts suffer from problems such as wide bandgap leading to limited ultraviolet light energy absorption, rapid carrier recombination, difficulty in recovering powder morphology, unsuitability of rigid substrates for flexible optoelectronic devices, insufficient carrier transport channels, and weak binding force.
A ZnO nanorod array layer was prepared on a flexible ITO-PEN substrate, and purple phosphorus nanosheets were deposited by self-adsorption method to form a pn-type heterojunction thin film photocatalyst, which combines efficient visible light absorption and carrier separation capabilities.
It improves photocatalytic efficiency, expands the photoresponse range, enhances carrier separation efficiency, and achieves catalyst stability and convenient recovery, making it suitable for flexible optoelectronic devices.
