A metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) photosystem based on covalent organic framework (COF) semiconductors was designed for robust and efficient hydrogen evolution under visible-light irradiation. A maximal H evolution rate of 8.42 mmol h g and a turnover frequency of 789.5 h were achieved by using a MIS photosystem prepared by electrostatic self-assembly of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) insulator-capped Pt nanoparticles (NPs) with the hydrophilic imine-linked TP-COFs having =C=O-H-N= hydrogen-bonding groups. The hot π-electrons in the photoexcited n-type TP-COF semiconductors can be efficiently extracted and tunneled to Pt NPs across an ultrathin PVP insulating layer to reduce protons to H . Compared to the Schottky-type counterparts, the COF-based MIS photosystems give a 32-fold-enhanced carrier efficiency, attributed to the combined enhancement of photoexcitation rate, charge separation, and oxidation rate of holes accumulated in the valence band of the TP-COF semiconductor.
设计了一种基于共价有机框架(COF)半导体的金属-绝缘体-半导体(MIS)光系统,用于在可见光照射下实现高效稳定的析氢反应。通过使用由聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)绝缘体包覆的铂纳米颗粒(NPs)与具有=C=O-H-N=氢键基团的亲水性亚胺连接的TP-COFs通过静电自组装制备的MIS光系统,实现了8.42 mmol h g的最大析氢速率和789.5 h的周转频率。光激发的n型TP-COF半导体中的热π电子可以通过超薄的PVP绝缘层有效地提取并隧穿到Pt NPs,将质子还原为H 。与肖特基型光系统相比,基于COF的MIS光系统的载流子效率提高了32倍,这归因于TP-COF半导体价带中光激发速率、电荷分离和空穴积累氧化速率的综合提高。
