Abstract [eng] |
In recent years, a considerable interest has been focused on fabrication of heterojunctions, which are able to provide better photocatalytic activity, especially p- and n-type semiconductors, when in contact, form a junction with a space-charge region at their interfaces [1]. Our goal was to synthesize environmentally friendly double p–n heterostructure of spinel type mixed Zn-Co coatings to investigate the photoelectrochemical properties and to test as prospective materials to catalyze oxygen evolving reaction (OER). Mixed Zn-Co oxide layers (Zn:Co 1,25:1) were formed using two-step synthesis: chemical precipitation and thermal treatment (400 – 600 C). Firstly, 0.5 M zinc nitrate and 0.5 M cobalt nitrate solutions were mixed by adding slowly 200 mL of 1 M NaOH and under continuous stirring (Fig. 1). Precipitates were annealed at 400 – 600 C for 2 h in air atmosphere. [...]. |
