What is Ethylenediamine-assisted solvothermal synthesis of ZnS/ZnO photocatalytic heterojunction for high-efficiency hydrogen production about?
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials have emerged as a class of novel materials over the last two decades, as they combine functional organic components and inorganic building blocks into unique materials through various chemical or physical interactions. In the present work, the importance of the use of ethylenediamine in sulfided materials applied to photocatalytic processes in the H 2 production is demonstrated. The ZnS/ZnO heterojunction was prepared by the solvothermal synthesis in the presence and absence of ethylenediamine. The photocatalytic behavior showed that the addition of ethylenediamine increases the photocatalytic efficiency up to eight times compared to the photocatalyst without the organic agent. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared and UV-visible spectroscopies of solids, N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and photoelectrochemical characterization. The ethylenediamine plays a double role: to stabilize the cubic phase of zinc sulfide and to act as a promoter molecule of charge transfer on the surface of ZnS/ZnO/en heterojunction, slowing down the rate of recombination of the
