要旨

A two-step hydrothermal process was used to synthesize branched CdS hierarchical nanostructures, which were then sensitized by CdSe via a chemical bath deposition method. CdS nanorods grew on the surface of the existing CdS nanorods to form hierarchical assemblies. After the chemical bath deposition process, core–shell structures of branched CdS nanorods covered by a uniform CdSe overlayer were formed. The branched hierarchical nanostructure improved the optical absorption by increasing the optical path via additional light trapping, as well as increasing the contact area between the electrode and electrolyte for more reactive sites, contributing to the higher photoelectrochemical performance than that obtained for the rod-like nanostructures. After CdSe sensitization, with the optical absorption greatly extended to longer wavelengths and the photoexcited charge carriers efficiently separated at the type II CdS/CdSe interface, the branched CdS/CdSe hierarchical nanostructures showed considerably increased photoelectrochemical performance compared with the CdS/CdSe nanorods, with a photoconversion efficiency for solar hydrogen generation of 2.7%.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
