Abstract

This data article presents the experimental evidences of the effect of TiO₂-fluorine doped tin oxide interface annealing and Ni(OH)₂ cocatalysts on the photoelectrochemical, structural, morphological and optical properties of Ni(OH)₂/CdS/ZnIn₂S₄/TiO₂ heterojunction. The Raman spectroscopy exhibits the sharp features of the rutile phase of TiO₂ and in agreement with the X-ray diffraction data. The band gap energy of the 500 °C sample was found to be 3.12 eV, further it was increased to 3.20, 3.22 eV for samples annealed at 600 and 700 °C respectively. The decrease in the band gap energy at 500 °C related to the oxygen vacancies and was analysed by photoluminescence spectroscopy analysis. The synthesis, characterization methods and other experimental details of TiO₂ based heterostructure are also provided. The presence of CdS and ZnIn₂S₄ coating on surface of TiO₂ electrodes providing a high surface area, extended visible absorption and helps to improve the change separation. This data article contains data related to the research article entitled “Highly efficient and stable 3D Ni(OH)₂/CdS/ZnIn₂S₄/TiO₂ heterojunction under solar light: Effect of an improved TiO₂/FTO interface and cocatalyst” (Mahadik et al., 2017) [1].
