In this letter, the synergistic effects of multiple element modification through a single polymeric precursor solution in hematite-based photoanodes using Na/Nb and Na/Ta as dopants are evaluated. Linear sweep voltammetry curves showed that the photoelectrochemical response was improved after Na/Nb (or Ta) addition. In both circumstances, an anodic shift (similar to 200 mV) in the onset potential was noticeable due to surface states created after Nb5+/Ta5+ segregation. The energetic loss caused by Nb (and Ta) segregation was partially restituted by NiFeOx addition due to the passivation of surface states, acting as recombination centers created by pentavalent modifiers. These combined modifications brought a three and four-fold increase for Na(0.1)HemNb(1.5) NiFeOx and Na(0.1)HemTa(1.0)NiFeO(x) respectively. Charge carrier dynamics analysis studied by intensity modulated photocurrent spectroscopy revealed that the PEC enhancement in both systems is mainly associated with improved charge separation efficiency.
