光电化学(PEC)电池为开发低成本太阳能转换系统提供了一种有前途的方法。然而,缺乏稳定且具有成本效益的电极仍然是阻碍其实际应用的瓶颈。在这里,我们提出了一种集成的所有在一个三维(3D)的碳纳米管(CNW)电极稳定的全碳PEC电池没有敏化半导体。采用射频等离子体增强化学气相沉积法在SiO2/Si/SiO2晶片的两面直接生长碳纳米管,制备了一体化碳纳米管电极。得益于互连的3D纹理结构,CNW可以有效地吸收入射光,并在CNW表面提供大的电化学反应界面,促进光生载流子的分离,这使其成为上级电极材料。实验结果表明,一体化碳纳米管电极具有良好的光电转换性能,光电流密度为830 μA cm−2。此外,CNW电极在宽波段上表现出优异的光响应和上级稳定性,即使在60 d后也保持光电流响应,这优于使用其他二维层状材料或半导体敏化电极的电极。这种具有令人印象深刻的光伏特性的一体化电极为PEC应用提供了一个有前途的平台,该平台具有高效率、优异的稳定性和低成本的环保性。
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells offer a promising approach for developing low-cost solar energy conversion systems. However, the lack of stable and cost-effective electrodes remains a bottleneck that hampers their practical applications. Here, we propose a kind of integrated all-in-one three-dimensional (3D) carbon nanowall (CNW) electrode without sensitized semiconductors for stable all-carbon PEC cells. The all-in-one CNW electrodes were fabricated by directly growing CNW on both sides of the SiO2/Si/SiO2 wafer employing the radio frequency plasmon enhanced chemical vapor deposition method. Benefitting from the interconnected 3D textured structure, the CNW can effectively absorb the incident light and provide a large electrochemical reaction interface at the CNW surface that promotes the separation of photogenerated charge carriers, which makes it a superior electrode material. Experimental results show that the all-in-one CNW electrodes possess excellent PEC performance with a photocurrent density of 830 μA cm−2. Moreover, the CNW electrodes exhibit excellent photoresponses over a wide waveband and superior stability with a maintained photocurrent response, even after 60 d, which outperforms the electrodes using the other two-dimensional layered materials or semiconductor sensitized electrodes. Such an all-in-one electrode with impressive photovoltaic properties provides a promising platform for PEC applications that is eco-friendly with high efficiency, excellent stability and low cost.
