Photoelectric Conversion Properties of Graphene Oxide Film Prepared by Electrochemical Deposition
Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) films with different reduction degrees (C/O ratios) were prepared on FTO by electrochemical deposition method. rGO prepared from GO electrolyte
A-rGO prepared from electrolyte after alkali treatment
and B-rGO prepared from electrolyte after NaBH
4
treatment
respectively. XRD
XPS
SEM and UV-Vis analysis were adopted to analyze the chemical structure and morphology of the films. The photoelectric properties of the films under visible light were studied. The results show that B-rGO film has the highest C/O ratio (8.1) and the lowest band gap (0.54 eV) among the three films
and its conduction band is almost closed to the FTO's. Under visible light illuminating
the films all generate cathodic photocurrent
and the photocurrent density increases with the increasing of C/O ratio. The photocurrent density of B-rGO (1 Acm
-2
) is the largest in the three films. In our work
we provide a feasible method to control the photoelectric property of rGO films by controlling their C/O ratios.
