Poor charge separation efficiency of semiconductors often stands in the way of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting realization.In this report,a surface polarized TiO2 photoanode is obtained via-OH moiety decoration,which achieves a fundamentally improved charge separation efficiency of about 94％ at 1.23 VRHE.Detailed data shows that these hydroxyls with electric dipoles polarize the surface,inducing substantial electric field in the surface region,and elevating band edges so as to form a homojunction within TiO2.Such serves as the direct driving force for the photogenerated charge separation and migration.Moreover,these hydroxyls also facilitate water oxidation kinetics.Without typical doping or cocatalyst,surface polarized TiO2 photoanode delivers a considerably increased photocurrent density of about 1.41 mA·cm-2 at 1.23 VRHE (AM 1.5 G) and a cathodic shift on onset potential over 200 mV.This report highlights new opportunities to modulate charge separation by surface polarization for the construction of robust photoanodes.

本文考虑一类抛物-抛物型三维交叉扩散系统的初边值问题重整化解的整体存在性.通过应用Stokes算子、Neumann热半群估计、抛物方程的正则性理论、Sobolev最大正则性理论和抛物方程的Schauder理论,我们得到了解的高阶正则性估计.结果表明,当系统中的每个组成部分相对于区域中心呈径向对称时,对于任意非负且适当的初始值,该系统至少有一个全局重整化解.
