Reduced TiO2 nanotube array as an excellent cathode for hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline solution

Ni nanoparticles assembled on the surface of biomass-derived porous carbon as competitive candidates for the hydrogen evolution reaction

“…4f), which also indicates outstanding electrochemical stability. 53 Besides, Ni-PC-4 has the lowest overpotential and desirable electrocatalytic activity compared with other catalysts (Fig. 4g).…”

Highly Active Titanium Oxide Photocathode for Photoelectrochemical Water Reduction in Alkaline Solution

“…It should be also mentioned that, the phase evolution of the TNT array is sensitive to the light irradiation. In our recent work, the samples, prepared with a similar cathodic reduction process but without one side irradiation, give XRD patterns with only two phases, i.e., metallic Ti and anatase TiO 2 [26].…”

“…Ye et al [24] loaded Pd quantum dots to sensitize TNT as the cathode in a PEC cell and reported a HER rate of 592 μmol/h/cm 2 under 320 mW/cm 2 . Very recently, the modified reduced anodic TNT was reported as a highly active HER catalyst in electrochemical cell in 1 M NaOH [26]. Zeng et al [27] reported a cathodic reduction method to modify a p-type Si/GaN photocathode, which exhibited a self-improving behavior for HER, viz.…”

Active Area of Anodic TiO2 Nanotube Arrays in Photo and Electrochemical Energy Storage Devices

“…In literature, the active area is often reported as the immersed front size facing the simulated 1-sun light source. In contrast, if the same sample is used as a cathode in an EC WS cell and a photocathode in a PECWS cell, the dark current becomes ineligible and the active surface should be summed up. , …”
