In this study, a novel CuS/NaNbO3 p-n heterojunction was successfully synthesized using a facile calcination and hydrothermal method. The interfacial interactions of this heterojunction were enhanced, promoting the efficiency of photocatalytic hydrogen production.
The construction of heterojunctions is commonly regarded as an efficient way to promote the production of hydrogen via photocatalytic water splitting through the enhancement of interfacial interactions. The p-n heterojunction is an important kind of heterojunction with an inner electric field based on the different properties of semiconductors. In this work, we reported the synthesis of a novel CuS/NaNbO3 p-n heterojunction by depositing CuS nanoparticles on the external surface of NaNbO3 nanorods, using a facile calcination and hydrothermal method. Through the screening of different ratios, the optimum hydrogen production activity reached 1603 mu mol center dot g(-1)center dot h(-1), which is much higher than that of NaNbO3 (3.6 times) and CuS (2.7 times). Subsequent characterizations proved semiconductor properties and the existence of p-n heterojunction interactions between the two materials, which inhibited the recombination of photogenerated carriers and improved the efficiency of electron transfer. This work provides a meaningful strategy to utilize the p-n heterojunction structure for the promotion of photocatalytic hydrogen production.
