Here, we demonstrate the in situ growth of ultrathin FeFx nanolayers on Fe2O3 photoanodes, acting as a highly efficient cocatalyst to accelerate hole transfer for improving PEC activity.
The unprecedented FeP/Ti–Fe2O3 possesses the advantages of efficient charge transfer in the bulk photoanode and at the interface of the photoanode and the electrolyte.
Commercial nickel nanoparticles (Ni NPs) were directly converted to efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction by urea–Ni solid powder pyrolysis, in which a Ni, N-co-doped graphite carbon shell wraps the Ni NPs in situ.
