隨著人類社會對能源的需求增加,永續性能源的發展極為迫切。使用光化學反應產生氫油是其中一個具有前景的方法,而氧化鐵正是作為光化學反應電池中光陽極的合適材料。不過,由於氧化鐵上的表面態所導致的低效率,造成普及應用發展上的瓶頸。更進一步,由於缺乏表面態與光化學表現的量化關係,更成為近一步發展的阻礙。在這項研究中,我們將痕量的鋅(II)和鉻(III)分別加入溶液中進行電化學實驗的測量,並同時利用感應耦合電漿質譜儀測量金屬離子在氧化鐵電極表面覆蓋率。結果顯示無論是鉻(III)或是鋅(II)都在0.1 %覆蓋率時擁有最小的起始電壓0.88 VRHE。我們也將鋅(II)覆蓋之氧化鐵電極藉由120 oC燒結兩小時,轉化為催化劑,並且觀察到了顯著提升的光電流與下降的起始電壓。Fe(III)和Ni(II)也經過同樣的處理,並且也觀察到較好的光化學反應效果。對於氧化鐵表面態的定量之研究將會是我們將來發展選擇性結合單分子催化劑在氧化鐵電極上的墊腳石。
As the demand for energy rises, the need for sustainable green energy is in urgent. Utilizing photoelectrochemical reaction (PEC) to produce hydrogen fuel is a promising way to the future, and α-Fe2O3 is a suitable candidate for the photoanode of PEC cells. However, the low efficiency due to surface states of hematite electrode has long been a bottleneck in development. Furthermore, the lack of quantified relation between surface states and its photochemical behavior set a barrier for improvement. In this study, trace amount of Zn(II) and Cr(III) ions were added respectively in the solution then several electrochemical measurements as well as the coverage on hematite surface by ICP-MS were conducted. The results suggested a minimal onset potential 0.88 VRHE when coverage was about 0.1 % regardless of whether Cr(III) or Zn(II) was used as ion probes. We also transformed Zn(II) ion probes to catalysis after annealed at 120 oC for 2h. It is observed that the photocurrent and onset potential improved significantly. Fe(III) and Ni(II) also undergo the same procedure, it is noted that the Fe(III) and Ni(II) also behave well after annealing. The quantification of surface states sets a stepping stone for selectively associating molecular catalysts, which is the target in our ongoing study.
