Influence of growth time on photoelectrical characteristics and photocatalytic hydrogen production of decorated Fe2O3 on TiO2 nanorod in photoelectrochemical cell

Efficient non-metal based conducting polymers for photocatalytic hydrogen production: comparative study between polyaniline, polypyrrole and PEDOT

“…This could be attributed to its excellent conductivity and high ability of the photogenerated charge carriers to transfer across the heterojunction interface. The proposed equivalent circuit was introduced according to the diffusion–recombination model, 62 and the fitting results are summarized in Table S1. † It was found that the modification of bare-TiO 2 with CPs remarkably enhanced the electrical conductivity thus decrease the recombination of e − /h + pairs.…”

Influence of CVD parameters on Co‐TiO2/CNT properties: A route to enhance energy harvesting from sunlight

“…[3][4][5] Indeed, several studies report the discovery of successful H 2 synthesis pathways, and many of these routes produced the gas by employing metallic oxides as catalysts, for example, titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ). [6][7][8][9] TiO 2 is a versatile material because it is biocompatible, non-toxic, photostable, insoluble in aqueous medium, corrosion-resistant, and thermally and chemically stable over a wide range of pH. [10][11][12][13] In addition to the extensive use in H 2 production previously mentioned, TiO 2 is frequently employed in pollutant degradation, solar cells, CO 2 conversion, and supercapacitors, among other applications.…”

“…In this context, hydrogen gas (H 2 ) production is an excellent alternative for substituting fossil fuels, mainly due to its high energy density and the zero‐emission of gases containing carbon during its application 3–5 . Indeed, several studies report the discovery of successful H 2 synthesis pathways, and many of these routes produced the gas by employing metallic oxides as catalysts, for example, titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) 6‐9 …”

Visible‐Light‐Responsive TiO2/NiFe Mixed Metal Oxide‐Carbon Photocatalytic Fuel Cell with Synchronous Hydrogen Peroxide Production

“…However, TiO 2 has some drawbacks during the PEC process, such as limited absorbance for visible light, rapid recombination of carriers, low charge transfer efficiency and so on. [32][33][34][35] To solve this problem, several measures have been reported, such as dye sensitization, [21,36,37] coupling TiO 2 with other semiconductors, [38][39][40] elements doping [41,42] and noble metal deposition as co-catalysts. [43,44] Yan and his coworkers [45] reported a design idea and synthesis method of TiO 2 nanorods modified graphene (G-TNRs) catalyst for photocatalysis, the photocurrent density could reach 4.9 μA/cm 2 [a] S.
