Abstract:A Fe2O3/FeOOH/poly‐Ru(bda)(vpy) (bda = 2,2’‐bipyridine‐6,6’‐dicarboxylate,vpy = 4‐vinylpyridine) photoanode has been fabricated by electropolymerization of molecular Ru(bda)(vpy) catalyst on FeOOH modified Fe2O3, in which a thin layer of FeOOH replicates the role of tyrosine residue in PSII as an efficient electron transfer mediator. The ternary hybrid photoanode produced a 2.4 times higher photocurrent density than that of previously reported Fe2O3/poly‐Ru(bda)(vpy) under AM 1.5 G illumination and displayed a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
