Abstract:The basic photoelectrochemical behavior of tetragonal p‐type
α‐ZnP2
has been investigated for the first time. The photoinduced current as a function of applied voltage and the spectral distribution of the photoresponse were measured in alkaline solutions (pH 13). Photosensitivity up to 580 nm in the visible range of the spectrum has been observed. From a linear Mott‐Schottky relation, an approximate value of the flatband potential

at pH 13 for monoclinic
β‐ZnP2

“…The binary Zn–P system has various compounds and polymorphs, such as ZnP 2 (α-tetragonal, β-cubic, monoclinic), Zn 3 P 2 (α-tetragonal, β-cubic), and ZnP 4 (monoclinic) . Thanks to their interesting characteristics and various crystalline structures, they have been studied widely for optoelectronics, semiconductors, photovoltaic devices, and Schottky diodes. , Furthermore, binary zinc phosphides have been applied as LIB anode materials because of the high theoretical capacities of ZnP 2 (1474 mA h g –1 ), Zn 3 P 2 (934 mA h g –1 ), and ZnP 4 (1841 mA h g –1 ). − Considering their wide use in LIB applications and high theoretical capacities (ZnP 2 : 1279 mA h g –1 , Zn 3 P 2 : 647 mA h g –1 ) for SIBs, zinc phosphides also can be applied as high-capacity SIB anode materials. However, zinc phosphides have hitherto not received any attention as new SIB anode materials.…”
To
design a high-performance sodium-ion battery anode, binary zinc
phosphides (ZnP2 and Zn3P2) were
synthesized by a facile solid-state heat treatment process, and their
Na storage characteristics were evaluated. The Na reactivity of ZnP2 was better than that of Zn3P2. Therefore,
a C-modified ZnP2-based composite (ZnP2-C) was
fabricated to achieve better electrochemical performance. To investigate
the electrochemical reaction mechanism of ZnP2-C during
sodiation/desodiation, various ex situ analytical techniques were
employed. During sodiation, ZnP2 in the composite was transformed
into NaZn13 and Na3P phases, exhibiting a one-step
conversion reaction. Conversely, Zn and P in NaZn13 and
Na3P, respectively, were fully recombined to the original
ZnP2 phase during desodiation. Owing to the one-step conversion/recombination
of ZnP2 in the composite during cycling, the ZnP2-C showed high electrochemical performance with a highly reversible
capacity of 883 mA h g–1 after 130 cycles with no
capacity deterioration and a fast C-rate capability of 500 mA h g–1 at 1 C and 350 mA h g–1 at 3 C.
