Integration of plasmonic and amorphous effects in MoO3−x spheres for efficient photoelectrochemical water oxidation†
Abstract
Plasmonic and amorphous oxygen-vacancy MoO3−x spheres were obtained as highly active and stable photoanodes for water oxidation. Combining the advantages of plasmonic and amorphous effects, the visible-near-infrared light harvest and charge-separation efficiency were significantly enhanced compared to those of conventional crystalline MoO3.
