Summary
In this protocol, we describe the detailed procedure for fabrication of barium-doped tantalum nitride nanorod array for application in photoelectrochemical water splitting. Tantalum oxide nanorods are first grown in-situ on a tantalum substrate by a through-mask anodization method using porous anodic alumina as a mask. The tantalum oxide nanorods are then converted into tantalum nitride nanorods by nitridation in ammonia atmosphere. The results reported in the associated publication demonstrate that the barium-doped tantalum nitride nanorods show high solar energy conversion efficiency for water splitting after modifying with a cobalt-phosphate oxygen evolution co-catalyst.Further details
