Abstract:
By means of density functional theory (DFT) computations, we investigated the functionalization effects of relatively non-toxic organic molecules (C 6 H 5 COOH and C 6 H 5 OCH 3 ) on the photocatalytic performance of monolayer MoS 2 . It is found that C 6 H 5 COOH and C 6 H 5 OCH 3 both are physically adsorbed on the surface of MoS 2 . The functionalization of C 6 H 5 COOH and C 6 H 5 OCH 3 on monolayer MoS 2 not only facilitate the separation of photoinduced carriers and improve the optical adsorption ability, but also make the band positions enough to drive water split into H 2 and O 2 . Thus, we propose that the C 6 H 5 COOH/MoS 2 and C 6 H 5 OCH 3 /MoS 2 can be potential photocatalysts for overall water splitting under visible light. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.
