研究目的
Investigating the synthesis and photoelectrochemical properties of WO3 decorated TiO2 arrays for enhanced water decontamination.
研究成果
The study successfully synthesized WO3 decorated TiO2 arrays with enhanced photoelectrochemical properties, demonstrating efficient charge carrier separation and potential applications in solar-driven environmental purification and solar fuel synthesis.
研究不足
The study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of WO3/TiO2 arrays, with limited discussion on the scalability and long-term stability of the photoelectrocatalyst.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A two-step chemical bath deposition (CBD) method was developed for the preparation of uniformly crystalline anatase WO3/TiO2 array on FTO substrate. The synthesis starts from the hydrothermal growth of TiO2 array in a homogenous HCl aqueous solution containing stabilized titanium isopropoxide, NH4F and acetylacetone (AcAc).
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The samples were characterized using SEM, TEM, XRD, UV-Vis absorbance spectra, and PEC measurements.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Field emission scanning electron microscope (SEM Hitachi S4800), Tecnai F20 high-resolution field emission transmission electron microscope (TEM), Bruker D8 Advance diffractometer, Metash UV8000A UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, CHI 760E workstation, Xe arc lamp (Perfectlight FX300).
4:0). Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The TiO2 array was grown on FTO substrate via hydrothermal synthesis, followed by decoration with WO3 clusters through post-deposition in (NH4)2WO4 aqueous solution and calcination.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The photoelectric properties were analyzed using current density-voltage plots, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and photocurrent potential curves.
