Chinese scientists have made new progress in the research of semiconductor light corrosion resistance

The reporter recently learned from Inner Mongolia University that the research team led by researcher Wang Lei of the school has made new progress in semiconductor anti-corrosion research, and has been approved by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and other projects. The related results of "Passivation Layer Helps BiVO4 Anti-Light Corrosion Research" have been published recently in the international chemical journal "German Applied Chemistry", which will help improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar hydrogen production.

Researcher Wang Lei introduced that hydrogen energy, a new type of clean energy, has always been a research hotspot in new energy. Hydrogen production by photolysis of water is one of the main technologies for obtaining hydrogen energy, and the conversion efficiency of solar hydrogen production is the main performance index of photolysis water. The low light absorption rate and high carrier recombination rate of semiconductors are the primary factors affecting the conversion efficiency. Therefore, how to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency is the top priority in the current photoelectric catalysis research field.

BiVO4 semiconductor has a suitable band gap width of 2.4 eV, good light absorption performance, and suitable conduction band position for water oxidation at low potential, making it one of the important materials in the field of solar photoelectric catalytic hydrogen production. However, the recombination of electrons and holes in BiVO4 material seriously affects the photo-generated charge transport, making its solar photoelectric catalytic performance lower than the theoretical value. At the same time, due to photo-corrosion, it cannot be suitable for long-term photohydrolysis reactions. The usual solution is to use surface co-catalyst modification to improve semiconductor charge separation efficiency, inhibit secondary charge recombination, and accelerate surface reaction kinetics.

The scientific research team has effectively improved the activity and stability of BiVO4 by improving the material preparation process and the constant potential photopolarization test method. Studies have shown that BiVO4 without surface promoter modification can achieve 100 hours of stability under intermittent testing, showing super "self-healing" characteristics. Electrochemical tests show that the passivation layer and oxygen vacancy assisting effect generated on the semiconductor surface interface effectively reduces the recombination of semiconductor electrons and holes, improves the surface water oxidation kinetics, and inhibits photocorrosion.

Industrial Wall Lamp

An industrial Wall Lamp is a type of lighting fixture that is designed to be mounted on a wall. It typically features a metal construction with a rugged, utilitarian design that is reminiscent of industrial machinery and factories.

Industrial wall lamps often have exposed bulbs, wire cages, or metal shades that provide a raw and unfinished look. They may also have adjustable arms or swivel joints, allowing for flexible positioning and directing of the light.

These lamps are commonly used in industrial-style or modern interior designs, adding a touch of vintage charm and industrial aesthetic to the space. They are often seen in lofts, studios, offices, or any other space where an industrial or rustic look is desired.

Industrial wall lamps can provide both ambient and task lighting, depending on the placement and type of bulb used. They are typically hardwired into the electrical system of the building, but there are also plug-in options available for more flexibility.

Overall, industrial wall lamps are a popular choice for those looking to add a unique and stylish lighting solution to their space while embracing the industrial design trend.
