One-Step Solvothermal Formation of Pt Nanoparticles Decorated Pt <sup>2+</sup> -Doped α-Fe <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> Nanoplates with Enhanced Photocatalytic O <sub/>2</sub> Evolution
摘要： The photooxidation of water into O2 has been identified as the barrier of water-splitting, and light-driven water oxidation catalysts have been intensively explored to develop highly active water splitting materials. Despite the fascinating advantages for photocatalytic water oxidation, such as abundance in nature, inexpensiveness, low toxicity, thermo/photo-stability, and suitable electronic band structures, hematite α-Fe2O3 is a poor photocatalyst for water oxidation due to its short exciton lifetime and hole diffusion length, weak carrier mobility and shallow sunlight penetration depth. In this work, we have synthesized Pt nanoparticles decorated Pt2+-doped α-Fe2O3 nanoplates (Pt/Pt-Fe2O3 NPs) by a one-step solvothermal route, which exhibit the enhanced photoactivity and photostablity for water oxidation. The introduction of the Pt into the α-Fe2O3 by the means of elemental doping and nanoparticle decoration accounts for the enhanced performance. The doping of Pt2+ into α-Fe2O3 improves the isolation efficiency of the photo-induced carriers which remarkably increases the lifespan of hole carriers, and the adherence of metal Pt nanoparticles to the surface of α-Fe2O3 leads to formation of schottky barriers at the interface which effectively impedes the combination of photo-generated electrons and holes.

A new photocatalyst based on Co(CO3)0.5(OH)·0.11H2O/Bi2WO6 nanocomposites for high-efficiency cocatalyst-free O2 evolution
摘要： The practical application of photocatalytic water splitting is essentially limited by the slow kinetic nature of the water oxidation process. Therefore, it is highly desirable but challenging to explore a low-cost and high-efficiency water oxidation catalyst for the aim of commercialization and industrialization. We herein report the first-time synthesis of a novel and high-efficiency visible-light-driven photocatalyst composed of flower-like Co(CO3)0.5(OH)·0.11H2O (CCO) nanowires and Bi2WO6 (BWO) nanosheets, i.e. CCO/BWO nanocomposite, via a facile hydrothermal method. Without utilizing any additional cocatalyst, the composite of CCO/BWO in 30% weight ratio exhibits extraordinarily high photoactivity and photostability towards O2 evolution, achieving an average O2 generation rate of 953 μmol h?1 g?1 under visible-light irradiation (λ > 420 nm).
