제목 Defect-engineered MoS2 thin films for high performance water reduction catalysts
초록 We successfully synthesized transferrable and transparent anion-engineered molybdenum disulfide thin-film catalysts through a facile thermolysis method by using [(NH4)2MoS4] solution and powder precursors with various sulphur/phosphorus weight ratios. The structure of synthesized sulphur-doped molybdenum phosphide (S:MoP) thin film changed from a two-dimensional van der Waals structure to a three-dimensional hexagonal structure by introduction of phosphorus atoms which substitute the sulphur in the MoS2 thin film. The S:MoP thin film catalyst, which consists of cheap and earth abundant elements, could exhibit the lowest onset potential and the highest photocurrent density for planar p-type Si photocathodes. The density functional theory calculations indicate that the surface of S:MoP thin films absorb hydrogen better than that of MoS2 thin films. The structurally engineered thin film catalyst facilitates the easy transfer of photogenerated electrons from the p-Si light absorber to the electrolyte. Anion-engineering of the MoS2 thin film catalyst would be an efficient way to improve the catalytic activity for photoelectrochemical water splitting.
