| Outline of Research at the Start |
Current photoelectrocatalysis toward water splitting has the major drawbacks of solar light utilization only in UV-Vis region and low charge separation efficiency. Thus, the applicant proposes the novel plasmonic PEC device with response to Vis-IR-light to improve the charge separation efficiency and charge mobility by rational engineering of photoelectrode heterostructures based on optimized interfaces at CuSeS/CdS p-n heterojunction and CdS/SS ohmic contact. This novel photoelectrode material has much lower cost and higher efficiency of long-lived charge separation.

| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
In 2022, we designed a plasmonic photoelectrode comprising Cu2-xSeyS1-y and CdS for Near-Infrared (NIR)light driven water oxidation. We evaluated the performance of the photoelectrodes with band engineering of Cu2-xSeyS1-y which resulted in the optimized interfacial electric field between CdS and Cu2-xSeyS1-y. Cu2-xSeyS1-y with a deep fermi level (EF) showed good photoelectrocatalytic Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity under NIR light. We illustrated the hot carriers transfer by the transient absorption spectroscopy. Finally, we found that the band engineering of Cu2-xSeyS1-y controlled the NIR-induced photoelectrocatalytic OER. It was revealed that not only the deeper EF position but also the stronger interfacial electric field contributed to the photoelectrocatalytic OER.
