Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of nano composite materials and relates to a synthesis method of a BiVO4-Ni / Co3O4 heterojunction. The synthesis method comprises the following steps of: growing a layer of BiOI nanoparticles on an FTO substrate by adopting an electro-deposition method; dropwise adding a vanadyl acetylacetonate aqueous solution on the surface of the FTO; performing calcining at a high temperature to generate bismuth vanadate (BiVO4); obliquely placing FTO in a deionized water solution containing Co (NO3) 2.6 H2O, Ni (NO3) 2.6 H2O, C6H12N4, CH4N2O and NH4F through continuous ion adsorption reaction; performing hydrothermal reaction at 120-200 DEG C for 2-5 hours, taking out an obtained product, cleaning the product with deionized water; annealing the product at 300-500 DEG C for 1.5-3 hours; and naturally cooling the product to room temperature to obtain the BiVO4-Ni / Co3O4 heterojunction. The prepared heterojunction is used as a photoelectrode to be applied tophotoelectrochemical hydrolysis reaction. According to the preparation method, a simple electro-deposition method and a hydrothermal method are utilized, therefore, the method is simple in operationand has good repeatability; the used materials are low in cost, large in reserves and non-toxic, and meets the requirement for environmental friendliness; the prepared material can significantly reduce the interface reaction barrier, effectively inhibit solid-liquid interface charge recombination, accelerate water oxidation reaction kinetics and improve the photocurrent density so as to better utilize solar energy.

Background technique [0002] The effective use of solar energy has always attracted much attention. Due to the depletion of fossil fuels and the serious pollution caused, human beings have to seek new clean energy sources. Using sunlight to split water to produce hydrogen is a very good strategy to meet the demand for clean energy in the future. [0003] In recent years, with BiVO 4 The representative bismuth-based semiconductors are widely used in the field of photoelectrochemical water splitting.
