Abstract：

Composite　of　rare　earth　oxides　with　TiO2　nanotube　arrays　can　effectively　modify　the　photoelectrochemical　(PEC)　behavior　of　TiO2.　A　CeO2/TiO2　heterojunction　was　prepared　by　loading　CeO2　nanoparticles　on　anodized　TiO2　nanotube　(TNT)　arrays　for　PEC　water　splitting.　The　CeO2/TNT　electrode　exhibited　a　high　photocurrent　density　of　2.11　mA　center　dot　cm-2,　4.3　times　that　of　pure　TNT　(0.49　mA　center　dot　cm-2)　at　1.23　V　vs　RHE　under　AM　1.5G　light.　And　CeO2/TNT　realized　a　high　PEC　H2　evolution　rate　of　17.86　mu　mol/h,　4.5　times　that　of　pure　TNT　at　1.55　V　vs　RHE.　The　effective　performance　of　the　CeO2/TNT　electrode　could　be　attributed　to　its　reasonable　band　gap　structure　facilitating　visible　light　absorption　and　efficient　charge　transfer,　inhibiting　the　recombination　of　electron/hole　pairs.　This　work　confirms　the　successful　construction　of　CeO2/TiO2　heterojunction　on　TNT　arrays　for　improving　the　PEC　performance　of　TiO2　for　H2　production.
