Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity of Co/CoO hybrid structures: a first-principles study on the Co layer thickness effect

Both metal and semiconductor nanoparticles can induce water splitting in response to light but in different ways: metal nanoparticles can generate hot carriers with a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect and semiconductor nanoparticles with optimal band gap and band edges are light absorbers for h...
