Phase Transformation Synthesis of Strontium Tantalum Oxynitride-Based Heterojunction for Improved Visible Light-Driven Hydrogen Evolution.
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2018 June 28
Tantalum oxynitride-based materials, which possess narrow band gaps and sufficient band energy potentials, have been of immense interest for water splitting. However, the efficiency of photocatalytic reactions is still low because of the fast electron-hole recombination. Here, a Sr2 Ta2 O7- x N x /SrTaO2 N heterostructured photocatalyst with a well-matched band structure was in situ constructed by the nitridation of hydrothermal-prepared Sr2 Ta2 O7 nanosheets. Compared to Sr2 Ta2 O7- x N x and pure SrTaO2 N, the Sr2 Ta2 O7- x N x /SrTaO2 N heterostructured photocatalyst exhibited the highest rate of hydrogen evolution, which is ca. 2.0 and 76.4 times of Sr2 Ta2 O7- x N x and pure SrTaO2 N, respectively, under the similar reaction condition. The enhanced performance arises from the formation of suitable band-matched heterojunction-accelerated charge separation. This work provides a promising strategy for the construction of tantalum oxynitride-based heterojunction photocatalysts.
