Resumen: | The preparation of molybdenum-modified hematite electrodes by means of chemical bath deposition and their photoelectrochemical behavior toward water oxidation are reported in this work. The addition of a molybdenum precursor to the bath solution for hematite deposition induces a remarkable change of morphology in the resulting film from (110)-oriented nanorods to polyhedral nanoparticles. Despite the resulting loss of order, by controlling the Mo/Fe molar ratio in the bath solution, a significant improvement of the water oxidation photocurrent is achieved compared to nanorod pristine hematite electrodes. Such a (photo)electrochemical enhancement is mainly explained by an effective surface state passivation in Mo-modified hematite films. FE-SEM, TEM, XRD, and XPS were employed for electrode structural and morphological characterization. |
