The efficient photocatalytic H-2 evolution of MAPbI(3)-PANI NW composite is significantly enhanced by the improved charge separation through the coupled PANI NWs.
Although the methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI(3)) hybrid perovskite has shown great potential in photocatalytic H-2 evolution, its performance is significantly suppressed due to the insufficient charge separation. Herein, a strongly coupled 3D/1D composite photocatalyst of MAPbI(3) microcrystals with conductive polyaniline nanowires (PANI NWs) is developed for efficient photocatalytic H-2 evolution in MAPbI(3)-saturated HI aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. The most active MAPbI(3) (100 mg)-PANI NW (7 mg) composite exhibits a H-2 evolution rate of 38.8 mu mol h(-1), which is 29 times higher than that of pristine MAPbI(3). Spectroscopic and photoelectrochemical measurements reveal that the coupled PANI NWs can greatly improve the charge separation, thereby considerably enhancing the photocatalytic H-2 evolution of the composite photocatalyst.
