摘要:

快速的本征载流子复合严重限制了CeO2基催化材料的光催化活性。在这里,提出了一种异质结界面工程策略,合理地进行界面调节。构建了具有强电子相互作用的2D/3D S型异质结。合成了一种用于固定在2D CeO2边缘的3D Cu2O颗粒的复合光催化剂。密度泛函理论(DFT)第一性原理计算和实验结果表明,CeO2和Cu2O之间形成强耦合的S型异质结电子传输界面,实现了高效的载流子分离和传输。复合催化剂的光催化析氢活性在以三乙醇胺为牺牲剂的体系中得到大幅提高,是CeO2的48倍。此外,CeO2-Cu2O光催化剂还具有高度稳定的光催化氢活性。这为在新型纳米复合结构中构建独特界面提供了一种通用策略。

Abstract:

Rapid intrinsic carrier recombination severely restricts the photocatalytic activity of CeO2-based catalytic materials. In this study, a heterogeneous interfacial engineering strategy is proposed to rationally perform interface modulation. A 2D/3D S-scheme heterojunction with strong electronic interactions was constructed. A composite photocatalyst was synthesized for the 3D Cu2O particles anchored at the edge of 2D CeO2. First-principles calculations (based on density functional theory) and the experimental results show that a strongly coupled S-scheme heterojunction electron transport interface is formed between CeO2 and Cu2O, resulting in efficient carrier separation and transfer. The photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity of the composite catalyst is significantly improved in the system with triethanolamine as the sacrificial agent and is 48 times as that of CeO2. In addition, the resulting CeO2-Cu2O photocatalyst affords highly stable photocatalytic hydrogen activity. This provides a general technique for constructing unique interfaces in novel nanocomposite structures.
