Abstract
FeOOH nanorod array was synthesized utilizing a facile hydrothermal method. The photoreduction efficiency to Cr(VI) is 70% after 4â¯h illumination at pHâ¯<â¯3. The Mott-Schottky plots confirmed the n-type behavior and the donor density is calculated to be 6.91â¯Ãâ¯1016â¯cmâ3. The best anodic photo-current is 90â¯nA/cm2 under illumination of light with intensity of 0.02â¯W/cm2. The onset potential of photo-current is â0.2â¯V (vs. Ag/AgCl (Sat. KCl)), which indicates the FeOOH nanorods array has an active interface.
