Stabilization of Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl Chromophores on Mesoporous TiO ₂ Electrodes: Surface Reductive Electropolymerization and Silane Chemistry

Journal Article Wu, Lei ; Brennaman, M. Kyle ; Nayak, Animesh ; ... - ACS Central Science

Stabilization is a critical issue in the long term operation of dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cells (DSPECs) for water splitting or CO ₂ reduction. The cells require a stable binding of the robust molecular chromophores, catalysts, and chromophore/catalyst assemblies on metal oxide semiconductor electrodes under the corresponding (photoelectro)chemical conditions. Here, an efficient stabilization strategy is presented based on functionalization of FTO|nanoTiO ₂ (mesoporous, nanostructured TiO ₂ deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass) electrodes with a vinylsilane followed by surface reductive electropolymerization of a vinyl-derivatized Ru(II) polypyridyl chromophore. The surface electropolymerization was dominated by a grafting-through mechanism, and rapidly completed within minutes.more »« less

A stable dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cell mediated by a NiO overlayer for water oxidation

Journal Article Wang, Degao ; Niu, Fujun ; Mortelliti, Michael J. ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

In the development of photoelectrochemical cells for water splitting or CO ₂ reduction, a major challenge is O ₂ evolution at photoelectrodes that, in behavior, mimic photosystem II. At an appropriate semiconductor electrode, a water oxidation catalyst must be integrated with a visible light absorber in a stable half-cell configuration. Here, we describe an electrode consisting of a light absorber, an intermediate electron donor layer, and a water oxidation catalyst for sustained light driven water oxidation catalysis. In assembling the electrode on nanoparticle SnO ₂ /TiO ₂ electrodes, a Ru(II) polypyridyl complex was used as the light absorber, NiO wasmore »« less

DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND STUDY OF MULTI-COMPONENT AND INTEGRATED SYSTEMS FOR LIGHT-DRIVEN HYDROGEN GENERATION

Technical Report Professor Richard Eisenberg

The research focussed on fundamental problems in the conversion of light to stored chemical energy. Specifically, work was completed on the design, synthesis and study of multi-component super- and supramolecular systems for photoinduced charge separation, one of the key steps in artificial photosynthesis, and on the use of these and related systems for the photochemical generation of H2 from water. At the center of these systems are chromophores comprised of square planar coordinated Pt(II) ions with arylacetylide and either diimine or terpyridyl ligands. Previous work had shown that the chromophores are photoluminescent in fluid solution with long-lived metal-to-ligand charge transfermore »« less

Significant Reduction in NiO Band Gap Upon Formation of Li _xNi _1-xO alloys: Applications To Solar Energy Conversion

Journal Article Alidoust, Nima ; Toroker, Maytal Caspary ; Keith, John A. ; ... - ChemSusChem

Long-term sustainable solar energy conversion relies on identifying economical and versatile semiconductor materials with appropriate band structures for photovoltaic and photocatalytic applications (e.g., band gaps of ~1.5–2.0 eV). Nickel oxide (NiO) is an inexpensive yet highly promising candidate. Its charge-transfer character may lead to longer carrier lifetimes needed for higher efficiencies, and its conduction band edge is suitable for driving hydrogen evolution via water-splitting. However, NiO’s large band gap (~4 eV) severely limits its use in practical applications. Our first-principles quantum mechanics calculations show band gaps dramatically decrease to ~2.0 eV when NiO is alloyed with Li ₂O. In thismore »« less
