研究目的
Investigating the enhancement of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance in ReS2/Si photocathodes through defect engineering using argon ion beam bombardment.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that argon ion beam bombardment can effectively introduce atomic vacancy defects on ReS2 nanosheets, significantly enhancing the solar-driven hydrogen evolution reaction performance of ReS2/Si photocathodes. The highest photocurrent density achieved was 18.5 mA cm?2 at 0 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode under simulated sun irradiation.
研究不足
The study focuses on the introduction of atomic vacancy defects on ReS2 nanosheets for enhancing HER performance, but the long-term stability and scalability of the method for industrial applications are not extensively explored.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method to grow high-density ReS2 nanosheets on a p-Si substrate, followed by controllable argon (Ar) ion beam bombardment to introduce atomic vacancy defects.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
p-type Si (100) wafer is used as the substrate for ReS2 nanosheet growth.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes a tubular high vacuum CVD system, rhenium oxide (ReO3) powder, sulfur (S) plates, and Ar ion beam etching equipment (MIBE-150C).
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involves CVD growth of ReS2 on p-Si, Ar ion beam bombardment to introduce defects, and characterization of the samples.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The samples are characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Photoelectrochemical (PEC) measurements are performed to evaluate HER performance.
