摘要：探究氧还原反应(ORR)进行的位点是了解和提高亚胺类共价有机框架(COFs)材料光催化H_(2)O_(2)演化活性的关键.然而,与亚胺COFs中其他具有亲电或光捕获能力的基团相比,亚胺键在光化学反应中的作用往往被忽视.因此,本文提出了一种通过在亚胺键周围引入电子受体结构(吡啶单元)来激发亚胺潜在光反应性的策略,以增强亚胺在光催化ORR制备H_(2)O_(2)的动力学和热力学优势.实验和理论模拟结果表明,吡啶N的引入显著改善了TAPT-PA-COF中由弱电荷离域引起的光谱吸收和载流子分离的不足,并在TAPT-PDA-COF上表现出全光谱吸收和快速电荷转移特性.同时,吡啶N与亚胺N原子共同作为活性位点可提高O_(2)吸附和活化,增强光生电子在TAPT-PDA-COF表面与反应物分子间的转移.在可见光照射下,TAPT-PDA-COF的H_(2)O_(2)产率高达706.2μmol g^(-1)h^(-1),约为TAPT-PA-COF(372.7μmol g^(-1)h^(-1))的1.9倍.该工作为亚胺类COFs在高级光催化应用中的设计和改性提供了新思路.

摘要：Hydrogen production via solar water splitting is regarded as one of the most promising ways to utilize solar energy and has attracted more and more attention. Great progress has been made on photocatalytic water splitting for hydrogen production in the past few years. This review summarizesthe very recent progress (mainly in the last 2–3 years) on three major types of solar hydrogenproduction systems: particulate photocatalysis (PC) systems, photoelectrochemical (PEC) systems,and photovoltaic‐photoelectrochemical (PV‐PEC) hybrid systems. The solar‐to‐hydrogen (STH)conversion efficiency of PC systems has recently exceeded 1.0% using a SrTiO3:La,Rh/Au/BiVO4:Mophotocatalyst, 2.5% for PEC water splitting on a tantalum nitride photoanode, and reached 22.4%for PV‐PEC water splitting using a multi‐junction GaInP/GaAs/Ge cell and Ni electrode hybrid *** advantages and disadvantages of these systems for hydrogen production via solar watersplitting, especially for their potential demonstration and application in the future, are briefly describedand discussed. Finally, the challenges and opportunities for solar water splitting solutions are also forecasted.
