Semiconductor−Metal Composite Nanostructures. To What Extent Do Metal Nanoparticles Improve the Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 Films?

Subramanian, Vaidyanathan, Wolf, Eduardo, Kamat, Prashant V.·2001·The Journal of Physical Chemistry B

Abstract

Noble metal particles of Au, Pt, and Ir were deposited on nanostructured TiO 2 film using an electrophoretic approach. The nanocomposite films were characterized by UV-absorption and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The deposition of tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB)-capped metal nanoparticles on TiO 2 films improved the photocurrent generation and induced a shift in the apparent flat band potential. The TiO 2 films modified with TOAB-capped metal nanoparticles were less prone to the electron scavenging by the oxygen in solution. Improved photoelectrochemical performance of semiconductor−metal composite film is attributed to the shift in quasi-Fermi level of the composite to more negative potentials. Continuous irradiation of the composite films over a long period causes photocurrent to decrease as the semiconductor−metal interface undergoes chemical changes. The role of semiconductor−metal composite films in improving the rate of photocatalytic degradation of an azo dye is also discussed.

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.
