By hydrothermal reaction, a carbon nanolayer conformally coated Fe2O3 (C-Fe2O3) as oxygen evolution catalyst (OEC) is loaded on the H-2 plasma treated nanoporous BiVO4 (BVO(H-2)) surface to simultaneously improve the hole extraction ability of the BiVO4 photoanode and accelerate the surface reaction kinetics. It is found that the H-2 plasma induced vacancies in BVO remarkably increases the conductivity, and the C-Fe2O3 enables efficient hole extraction and injection. As a result, the C-Fe2O3/BVO(H-2) photoanode exhibits significantly enhanced photocurrent density and ABPE value compared to the BVO photoanode.
To simultaneously improve the hole extraction ability of the BiVO4 photoanode and accelerate the surface reaction kinetics, herein, a carbon nanolayer conformally coated Fe2O3 (C-Fe2O3) as oxygen evolution catalyst (OEC) is loaded on the H-2 plasma treated nanoporous BiVO4 (BVO(H-2)) surface by a hydrothermal reaction. It is found that the H-2 plasma induced vacancies in BVO remarkably increases the conductivity, and the C-Fe2O3 enables hole extraction from the bulk to the surface as well as efficient hole injection to the electrolyte. As a result, the C-Fe2O3/BVO(H-2) photoanode achieves a photocurrent density of 4.4 mA/cm(2) at 1.23 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and an ABPE value of 1.5 % at 0.68 V vs. RHE, which are 4.8-fold and 13-fold higher than that of BVO photoanode, respectively.
