Surface charge-directed borophene-phosphorous nitride nanodot heterojunction supports for enhanced photoelectrochemical performance.

Published in: Chemical communications (Cambridge, England) (2023)

Complimentary surface-charged, nanosized 0D-0D hybrids of phosphorous nitride dots (PNDs) ( ς = +9.5 mV) and borophene dots (BDs) ( ς = -26.2 mV) having favourable band alignments are proposed for a type-II heterojunction. This hybrid model provides rapid carrier separation and carrier recombination resistance for enhanced PEC water oxidation.
