This article presents a comparative study on the synthesis and characterization of the binary and ternary ferrites for photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical applications. The importance and role of ferrite photocatalysts is discussed in context to the visible-light active photocatalyst applicationviz.for hydrogen productionvia.water-splitting. It also demonstrates that computational-exploration of any material system is key to identify, and achieve visible-light active photocatalysts.

AbstractCharacterization of 700-nm-thick poly(vinylidene fluoride/trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF/TrFE)]/TiO2/Al-doped ZnO (AZO) structures on a glass substrate were investigated. In this study, the sputtered TiO2 films as insulator were used for the reduction of leakage current. The leakage current density of the fabricated Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/AZO and Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/170-nm-thick TiO2/AZO structures were approximately 8.7 and 3.9 nA/cm2 at the applied voltage of 10 V, respectively. In the polarization vs. voltage characteristics, the fabricated Pt/P(VDF/TrFE)/TiO2/AZO structures showed hysteresis loops caused by ferroelectric polarization. The remnant polarization (2Pr) and coercive voltage (2Vc) measured from a saturated hysteresis loop at the frequency of 50 Hz were approximately 12 μC/cm2 and 105 V, respectively. These results suggest that the insertion of TiO2 film is available for reducing the gate leakage current without changing the ferroelectric properties.

AbstractThere are few materials that are broadly used for fabricating optical metasurfaces for visible light applications. Gallium phosphide (GaP) is a material that, due to its optical properties, has the potential to become a primary choice but due to the difficulties in fabrication, GaP thin films deposited on transparent substrates have never been exploited. In this article we report the design, fabrication, and characterization of three different amorphous GaP metasurfaces obtained through sputtering. Although the material properties can be further optimized, our results show the potential of this material for visible applications making it a viable alternative in the material selection for optical metasurfaces.
