Abstract Heteroatom doping can tune the band structure of semiconductors and enhance their carrier transfer capacity for improving performance photoelectrochemical water oxidation. Nevertheless, introduction dopants is not always beneficial. In this study, magnesium (Mg) adopted to dope ZnIn 2 S 4 nanosheet array photoanodes form a type‐II reduce bulk recombination, but concurrently introduced deleterious oxygen (O) defects slow down surface catalytic reaction kinetics. Furthermore, facile...

Biomaterials in nature often exhibit hierarchical chiral structures with an intriguing mechanism involving chirality transfer from molecular to supramolecular and the nano- or microscale level. To mimic cross-level transfer, we present here one kind of host–guest complex system built β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), fluorescent dyes, which show multilevel chirality, including β-CD, induced β-CD/SDS complexes, a lattice self-assembled nanosheet, mesoscopic assembled...

Abstract The application of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is limited by the sluggish surface oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics. OER kinetics can be effectively improved through cocatalyst engineering. However, tardy transfer process and serious recombination carriers are key factors restricting development. Taking BiVO 4 as an example, a Co‐modified heme film rich in large conjugated ring structures introduced onto photoanode using solvothermal method. This functions...

Abstract Vast bulk recombination of photo-generated carriers and sluggish surface oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics severely hinder the development photoelectrochemical water splitting. Herein, through constructing a vertically ordered ZnInS nanosheet array with an interior gradient energy band as photoanode, photogenerated decreases greatly. We use atomic layer deposition technology to introduce Fe-In-S clusters into photoanode. First-principles calculations comprehensive...
