Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution over Cu-Doped ZnIn2S4 under Visible Light Irradiation

Shen, Shaohua, Zhao, Liang, Zhou, Zhaohui, Guo, Liejin·2008·The Journal of Physical Chemistry C

Abstract

A series of Cu-doped ZnIn 2 S 4 photocatalysts has been synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method, with the copper concentration varying from 0 wt% to 2.0 wt%. The physical and photophysical properties of these Cu-doped ZnIn 2 S 4 photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV−visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV−vis). The diffuse reflectance and photoluminescence spectra of Cu-doped ZnIn 2 S 4 shifted monotonically to longer wavelengths as the copper concentration increased from 0 wt% to 2.0 wt%, indicating that the optical properties of these photocatalysts greatly depended on the amount of Cu doped. Meanwhile, the layered structure of ZnIn 2 S 4 would be destructed gradually by Cu doping. The photoactivity of ZnIn 2 S 4 was enhanced when Cu 2+ was doped into the crystal structure. The highest photocatalytic activity was observed on Cu (0.5 wt%)–doped ZnIn 2 S 4, with the rate of hydrogen evolution to be 151.5 μmol/h under visible light irradiation (λ > 430 nm). On the basis of the calculated energy band positions and optical properties, the effect of copper as a dopant on the photocatalytic activity of Cu-ZnIn 2 S 4 was studied.

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.
