Making MetalCarbon Nitride Heterojunctions for Improved Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution with Visible Light

Di, Yan, Wang, Xinchen, Thomas, Arne, Antonietti, Markus·2010·ChemCatChem

Abstract

Gold nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of a g‐C 3 N 4 semiconductor by deposition–precipitation, photodeposition, and impregnation methods to make metal–semiconductor junctions for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from aqueous solution containing an electron donor with visible light illumination. The samples were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV/Vis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results show that the Au/g‐C 3 N 4 prepared by the deposition–precipitation method possessed the best photocatalytic activity, due to the formation of tight Au–semiconductor heterojunctions effectively promoting the transfer of charge from light‐excited g‐C 3 N 4. Surface modification of the Au/g‐C 3 N 4 with a second metal further improved the activity of the photocatalytic system, which was explained by simultaneous optimization of electron transfer by the gold and chemical reactivity by the secondary metal.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
