The development of durable, low‐cost, and efficient photo‐/electrolysis for the oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions (OER and HER) is important to fulfill increasing energy requirements. Herein, highly efficient and active photo‐/electrochemical catalysts, that is, CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 hybrids, have been synthesized successfully through a facile in situ co‐precipitation method at room temperature. The CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 composite exhibits an obvious OER electrocatalytic performance with a current density of 40 mA cm−2 at an overpotential of 350 mV for water oxidation, which is 2.5 times higher than pure CoMn‐LDH nanosheets. For HER, CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 (η50=−448 mV) requires a potential close to Pt/C (η50=−416 mV) to reach a current density of 50 mA cm2. Furthermore, under visible‐light irradiation, the photocurrent density of the CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 composite is 0.227 mA cm−2, which is 2.1 and 3.8 time higher than pristine CoMn‐LDH (0.108 mA cm−2) and g‐C3N4 (0.061 mA cm−2), respectively. The CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 composite delivers a current density of 10 mA cm−2 at 1.56 V and 100 mA cm−2 at 1.82 V for the overall water‐splitting reaction. Therefore, this work establishes the first example of pure CoMn‐LDH and CoMn‐LDH@g‐C3N4 hybrids as electrochemical and photoelectrochemical water‐splitting systems for both OER and HER, which may open a pathway to develop and explore other LDH and g‐C3N4 nanosheets as efficient catalysts for renewable energy applications.

双功能CoMn层状双氢氧化物@石墨C3N4纳米杂化物与高效光电化学总水分解的耦合

为满足氧气和氢气释放反应(OER和HER)的需要,开发持久,低成本和高效的光/电解对于满足不断增长的能源需求非常重要。在此,高效,活性的光/电化学催化剂,即CoMn-LDH @ g-C 3 N 4杂化体,已通过一种简便的室温共沉淀方法成功地合成。CoMn-LDH @ g-C 3 N 4复合材料具有明显的OER电催化性能,在水氧化的超电势为350 mV时电流密度为40 mA cm -2,比纯CoMn-LDH纳米片高2.5倍。对于HER,CoMn‐LDH @ g‐C 3 N 4η 50 = -448毫伏)需要一个电位接近的Pt / C(η 50 = -416毫伏),以达到为50mA cm 2的电流密度2。此外,在可见光照射下,CoMn-LDH @ g-C 3 N 4复合材料的光电流密度为0.227 mA cm -2,比原始CoMn-LDH(0.108 mA cm -2)高2.1倍和3.8倍和g‐C 3 N 4(0.061 mA cm -2)。CoMn-LDH @ g-C 3 N 4复合材料在1.56 V和100 mA cm -2时提供10 mA cm -2的电流密度整个水分解反应在1.82 V下进行。因此,这项工作建立了纯CoMn-LDH和CoMn-LDH @ g-C 3 N 4杂化物作为OER和HER的电化学和光电化学水分解系统的第一个实例,这可能为开发和探索其他LDH开辟道路和g‐C 3 N 4纳米片作为可再生能源应用的有效催化剂。
