dc.description.alternativeAbstract | In this work, synthesized colloidal CeO2 quantum dots (Ce-QDs) via a facile aqueous solution method using citric acid as a chelating/stabilizing agent and ammonia as an oxidant. The Ce-QDs with an average size of 1.8, 2.3, and 3.0 nm were well-dispersed in the aqueous solution with high stability. The photoelectrochemical water-splitting activity of the Ce-QDs films was investigated. The colloidal Ce-QDs were spin-coated onto BiVO4 (BVO) photoanode, allowing homogeneous and uniform deposition of Ce-QDs on the BVO (Ce-QDs/BVO) photoanode. This Ce-QDs/BVO photoanode exhibited enhanced photoelectrochemical activity, achieving a high photocurrent density of 4.0 mA/cm2 with CoOx co-catalyst deposition under simulated sunlight illumination, which is eight times higher than pristine BVO photoanode (~0.6 mA/cm2). Besides, this structure showed much improved stability, whereas BVO had 70% stability loss, with highest oxygen evolution faradaic efficiency of 89% at 1.23 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode in the phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4). Besides, the Ce-QDs were applied to AZ31B magnesium alloy to investigate its corrosion inhibition behavior. I found that the corrosion resistance of Ce-QDs/AZ31B increased by surface passivation, thereby reducing corrosion of AZ31B to a greater extent. These results demonstrate that synthesis methodology is promising for the cost-effective and large-scale synthesis of Ce-QDs with uniform size for diverse (photo)electrochemical and anti-corrosion applications. | - |
