摘要
Integration of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) onto high surface area photocathod is highly desired to minimize the overpotential for the solar-powered hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) are beneficial use in photoelectrochemistry because of their large electrochemically availab surface area and inherent ability to decouple light absorption and the transpo of minority carriers. Here, silicon (Si) NW arrays were employed as a mod photocathode system for MoS2 wrapping, and their solar-driven HER activil was evaluated. The photocathode is made up of a well-defined MoSJTiO2/Si coaxial NW heterostructure, which yielded photocurrent density up to 15 mA/cm2 (at 0 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)) with goo stability under the operating conditions employed. This work reveals the earth-abundant electrocatalysts coupled with high surface area NW electrod~ can provide performance comparable to noble metal catalysts for photocathod hydrogen evolution.
