Exploring the synergistic effect of nickel and cobalt codoping in BiVO4: Impact on PEC hydrogen generation via water splitting

Key Points

• Codoping with nickel and cobalt increases hydrogen generation rates significantly.
• Key evidence shows an improvement of up to 1.5 times in hydrogen production under solar light.
• Analysis employs photocatalytic methods to assess hydrogen generation efficiency using bismuth vanadate.
• Highlights the potential for enhanced photocatalytic materials, yet calls for more practical applications in water splitting.
