The effect of oxidative functionalization of carbon nanotubes on the morphological, optical, and photoelectrochemical properties of modified titanium dioxide photoanodes

In this work, we demonstrate the influence of the oxidative treatment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the morphological, optical, and photoelectrochemical properties of CNTs-TiO 2 photoanodes. CNTs were synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) and subsequently oxidized in a mixture of H...

description In this work, we demonstrate the influence of the oxidative treatment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the morphological, optical, and photoelectrochemical properties of CNTs-TiO 2 photoanodes. CNTs were synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) and subsequently oxidized in a mixture of HNO 3 /H 2 SO 4 to introduce nitrogen- and oxygen-containing functional groups. The oxidation time was varied (45, 90, and 180 min) to obtain CNTs with different oxidation levels (CNTs-ox). Pristine and oxidized CNTs were deposited on ITO and used as substrates to fabricate ITO/CNTs/TiO 2 photoelectrodes by depositing a TiO 2 thin layer using a CVD procedure. The extent of oxidation of the CNTs was found to directly influence the homogeneity and morphology of the TiO 2 overlayer, its physical stability, and the optical and photoelectrochemical properties of the photoelectrodes. An optimum oxidative treatment was achieved for 90 min, leading to a CNTs-ox/TiO 2 electrode with the best performance. Compared to shorter and longer times, this sample showed the smallest bandgap and the best homogeneity of TiO 2 growth on the CNTs' surface. Optimal photoelectrochemical performance was also found for this sample (160 μA/cm 2 at 0 V vs. Ag/AgCl) in KCl (0.1 M) electrolyte (100 mW/cm 2 , Xenon arc lamp). Graphical Abstract
