Insights Into the Sunlight-Driven Water Oxidation by Ce and Er-Doped ZrO2

Insights Into the Sunlight-Driven Water Oxidation by Ce and Er-Doped ZrO2

In the present work, the activity of Ce and Er-doped ZrO2 nanopowders for sun-driven photocatalytic water oxidation has been investigated. ZrO2 powders with tunable amounts of tetragonal, monoclinic and cubic polymorphs have been synthesized by introducing Ce and Er (from 0.5 to 10 mol % on an oxide...
