Sb <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> /Sb <sub/>2</sub> S <sub/>3</sub> Heterojunction Composite Thin Film Photoanode Prepared via Chemical Bath Deposition and Post-Sulfidation

摘要： Novel visible-light-driven Sb2O3/Sb2S3 photoelectrodes were synthesized via chemical bath deposition and post-sul?dation. An enhanced photocurrent density of 0.35 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs. RHE under simulated sunlight was achieved, compared to 0.008 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs. RHE for pure Sb2O3. The great improvement in the photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance bene?ts from the enhanced light absorbance and charge transfer ef?ciency attributable to the combination of Sb2S3. The Sb2O3/Sb2S3 heterojunction strategy shows potential for visible-light-driven photoelectrochemical water splitting.
