제목 Coaxially electrospuned core-sheath ZnO/g-C3N4 nanofiber composite for photoelectrochemical water splitting
초록 Semiconductor heterojunction nanocomposites have proven to be efficient in retarding exciton pair recombination in ZnO and other semiconductor photocatalysts. Different studies have been reported on ZnO/g-C3N4 composite photocatalysts which were synthesized via different routes. In this study, we present core-sheath ZnO/g-C3N4 composite photocatalyst synthesized by coaxial electrospinning method for the first time. This nanocomposite ensures higher interfacial contact between the two semiconductors, which facilitates excitons transfer and effective separation. The ZnO/g-C3N4 composite was used as a photocathode for water photolysis and high photocurrent density was recorded at applied voltage of 0 V as compared to the pristine ZnO and g-C3N4.
