Fe-Doped Metal Complex (LaCo_0.9Fe_0.1O₃) and g-C₃N₄ Formed a Nanoheterojunction for the Photocatalytic Decomposition of Water.

ABSTRACT: Photocatalytic water decomposition provides an environmentally friendly method of hydrogen production similar to "photosynthesis", while current research aims to develop affordable yet efficient photocatalysts. Oxygen vacancy is one of the most significant defects in metal oxide semiconductors, including perovskite, which substantially influences the semiconductor material's efficiency. To enhance the oxygen vacancy in the perovskite, we worked on doping Fe. A perovskite oxide nanostructure of LaCo_xFe_1-xO₃ (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 0.9) was prepared by the sol-gel method, and a series of LaCo_xFe_1-xO₃ (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 0.9)/g-C₃N₄ nanoheterojunction
