Engineering interfacial charge transfer channel for efficient photocatalytic H2 evolution: The interplay of CoPx and Ca2+ dopant

Xiaohui Ren et al.

Summary: A cost-effective cocatalyst, cobalt phosphide (CoPx), was developed for photocatalytic H-2 evolution, showing excellent conductivity, strong reduction ability, and good thermal and chemical stability. The integration of ultrafine CoPx nanoparticles on CdS, along with Ca2+ dopants, significantly enhanced the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, leading to improved H-2 generation performance. This study highlights the potential for simplified fabrication procedures to enhance cobalt active sites for efficient photocatalytic H-2 generation.

The role of substrate materials on stabilization of CdO, 2CdO•CdSO4 and 2CdS•2CdO•CdSO4 from CdS powder film annealed in air

Davide Casotti et al.

Summary: The study investigated the oxidation/desulphurization of CdS to CdO and intermediate phases by annealing CdS films on different substrates. It found that the relative stability of CdO and 2CdO·CdSO4 phases is greater on alpha-Al2O3 than on glazed porcelain substrate. Additionally, a mixed phase of CdO and 2CdO·CdSO4 was obtained at 800 degrees C when films were deposited on nickel and polycrystalline silica substrates.
