Wehrspohn Atomic Layer Deposition of Cobalt Phosphide for Efficient Water Splitting Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 59 (2020), 17172-17176
Transition-metal phosphides (TMP) prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) are reported for the first time. Ultrathin Co-P films were deposited by using PH(3)plasma as the phosphorus source and an extra H(2)plasma step to remove excess P in the growing films. The optimized ALD process proceeded by self-limited layer-by-layer growth, and the deposited Co-P films were highly pure and smooth. The Co-P films deposited via ALD exhibited better electrochemical and photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activities than similar Co-P films prepared by the traditional post-phosphorization method. Moreover, the deposition of ultrathin Co-P films on periodic trenches was demonstrated, which highlights the broad and promising potential application of this ALD process for a conformal coating of TMP films on complex three-dimensional (3D) architectures. Keywords: atomic layer deposition (ALD); PH(3)plasma; thin-films; transition-metal phosphide (TMP); water splitting
