Problems solved by technology

[0003] Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is the earliest known semiconductor for solar hydrogen production, however, due to TiO 2 The wide band gap (about 3.2 eV) can only respond to ultraviolet light (about 5% of sunlight), which greatly limits the ability of TiO 2 The photoelectric conversion efficiency; graphene has the ability to promote the transfer of photogenerated charges between different semiconductors and enhance the performance of PEC water splitting. Graphene, as an excellent charge transport medium, has been applied to α-Fe 2 o 3 / BiV 1–x Mo x o 4 and Fe 3 o 4 Construction of / ZnO heterojunction photoelectrode
