英文摘要 | The development of new photocatalysts and photocatalytic systems is the essence of the development of photocatalytic hydrogen production engineering. Nitrogen-rich graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N5) 3 N 5 ) has gradually replaced conventional graphite phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) 3 N 4 ) with a smaller bandgap and high-efficiency visible light utilization. In this study, g-C3N5 3 N 5 and Nb2C 2 C MXene coupled composition with sandwich structure were manufactured by a simple ultrasonic magnetic stirring method and used for photocatalytic hydrogen production. By adjusting the ratios of single components in the system, the hydrogen production rate of the optimal sample 4:1g-C3N5/Nb2C 3 N 5 /Nb 2 C under visible light irradiation is 2529.5 mu mol center dot g-- 1 center dot h- 1 , which is 21 times higher than that of gC3N5. 3 N 5 . The high apparent quantum yield (AQY) value of 17.3 % also proves a high light utilization rate. The atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique reveals variations in the thickness of the samples, while strongly demonstrating the formation of sandwich structure. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis further reveals the electron transfer paths within the system, preliminarily verifying the formation of Schottky heterojunctions. Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) tests not only re-validate the correctness of the electron transfer path but also demonstrate the accuracy of the energy bands. The density-functional theory (DFT) calculations corroborate that Nb2C 2 C MXene plays the role of a photoco-catalyst to form Schottky heterojunctions with g-C3N5 3 N 5 for efficient carrier separation and migration. This work highlights the key role of sandwich structure photocatalytic systems on photocatalytic performance. |
