摘要
赤铁矿（α-Fe2O3）是最有前途的氧进化反应（OER）光阳极材料之一。最近对 Fe2O3 的研究发现，OER 的快速速率与表面空穴密度有关，这表明存在多位点反应途径。然而，人们对 Fe2O3 中的杂原子对多位点机制的影响仍知之甚少。在此，我们在钛基底上合成了 Fe2O3（Fe2O3/Ti），并通过光-暗电化学扫描研究了 OER 的氧中间产物。我们发现当 pH = 11-14 时，Fe2O3/Ti 上的 Fe-OH 物种消失，Ti-OH 中间体出现，这显著提高了 Fe2O3/Ti 的 OER 性能。结合密度泛函理论计算，我们认为在高碱性条件下，Ti 原子作为协同催化剂位点，从邻近的 Fe-OH 物种中捕获质子，从而促进了 Fe=O 的耦合，降低了非电化学步骤的能垒。我们的研究在阐明反应中间产物的基础上，对异质原子在 OER 多位点机理中的作用提出了新的见解。
The role of titanium at the interface of hematite photoanode in multisite mechanism: Reactive site or cocatalyst site?
Hematite (α-Fe2O3) constitutes one of the most promising photoanode materials for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Recent research on Fe2O3 have found a fast OER rate dependence on surface hole density, suggesting a multisite reaction pathway. However, the effect of heteroatom in Fe2O3 on the multisite mechanism is still poorly understood. Herein we synthesized Fe2O3 on Ti substrates (Fe2O3/Ti) to study the oxygen intermediates of OER by light-dark electrochemical scans. We identified the Fe-OH species disappeared and Ti-OH intermediates appeared on Fe2O3/Ti when pH = 11−14, which significantly improved the OER performance of Fe2O3/Ti. Combined with the density functional theory calculations, we propose that Ti atom acts as cocatalyst site and captures proton from neighboring Fe-OH species under highly alkaline condition, thereby promoting the coupling of Fe=O and reducing the energy barrier of the non-electrochemical step. Our work provides a new insight into the role of heteroatom in OER multisite mechanism based on clarifying the reaction intermediates.
