Ultrathin MoS₂–MoO₃ nanosheets functionalized CdS photoanodes for effective charge transfer in photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells

Abstract

The study focuses on hydrothermal synthesis of MoS2–MoO3 nanostructures and their application in the modification of CdS photoanodes.

Coupling of Crumpled-Type Novel MoS2 with CeO2 Nanoparticles: A Noble-Metal-Free p–n Heterojunction Composite for Visible Light Photocatalytic H2 Production

“…Yuan et al developed a 2D–2D nanojunction between MoS 2 and TiO 2 and tested the photocatalytic water reduction reaction. 9a A number of studies have been reported for enhancing the photocatalytic performance due to heterojunctions such as n -BiVO 4 -MoS 2 , 11 MoS 2 -MoO 3 /CdS, 12 MoS 2 /CdS, 13 and MoS 2 /N-RGO/CdS. 14…”

High-performance lateral MoS2-MoO3 heterojunction phototransistor enabled by in-situ chemical-oxidation

“…The peaks positioned at 900-600 and 400-200 cm In order to further confirm the crystal structure of MoS 2 after KI/I 2 solution treatment, XRD analysis was conducted [33,34]. As shown in Fig.…”

Transparent conductive oxides in photoanodes for solar water oxidation

“…[15][16][17] Beyond the photocatalytic lms, the conductive substrate is the other key part of the PEC electrode, and the materials of which are normally TCOs. [18][19][20][21] For a typical photoanode, TCO lms normally bind the photocatalytic lms and the substrate support to collect photoexcited electrons, which are then transferred to the cathode on the other side for the reductive reaction. 22,23 Typical TCOs include uorine/indium doped tin oxide (FTO/ITO) and aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO), which are already commercialized by coating at lms on glass or polymer substrates.…”
