Co3O4/CeO2 p-n heterojunction construction and application for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

The construction of p-n type heterojunction is an effective way to enhance the efficiency of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. In this work, Co3O4/CeO2 p-n heterojunction was construct by a simple hydrothermal method. This heterojunction mainly uses the internal electric field formed and accelerate the separation of electrons and holes in the opposite direction. In addition, according to SEM and TEM characterization, it was found that the...
