Abstract [eng] In recent years, much interest has been focused on the fabrication of heterojunctions capable of providing improved photocatalytic activity, in particular for p- and n-type semiconductors, which form a junction with a space charge region at their interfaces. [1]. Our aim was to synthesize environmentally friendly spinel-type mixed Zn-Co coatings with a double p-n heterostructure, to investigate the photoelectrochemical properties and to test them as promising materials for catalyzing the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Mixed Zn-Co oxide layers (Zn:Co 1:1,25) were formed by a two-step synthesis: chemical precipitation and heat treatment (400-600 C). First, solutions of 0,5 M cobalt nitrate and 0,5 M zinc nitrate were mixed by the slow addition of 200 ml of 1 M NaOH with continuous stirring (Figure 1). The precipitates were heated at 400-600 C for 2 hours in an air atmosphere. [...].
