Sonochemical synthesis of TiO(2 nanoparticles on graphene for use as photocatalyst

Using ultrasonication we succeed in a controlled incorporation of TiO(2) nanoparticles on the graphene layers homogeneously in a few hours. The average size of the TiO(2) nanoparticles was controlled at around 4-5 nm on the sheets without using any surfactant, which is attributed to the pyrolysis and condensation of the dissolved TiCl(4) into TiO(2) by ultrasonic waves. The photocatalytic activity of the resultant graphene-TiO(2) composites containing 25 wt.% TiO(2) is better than that of commercial pure TiO(2). This is partly due to the extremely small size of the TiO(2) nanoparticles and partly due to the graphene-TiO(2) composite structure consisting of homogeneous dispersion of crystalline TiO(2) nanoparticles on the graphene sheets. As the graphene in the composites has a very good contact with the TiO(2) nanoparticles it enhances the photo-electron conversion of TiO(2) by reducing the recombination of photo-generated electron-hole pairs.     

Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering studies of carbon nanotubes using Ag‐core Au‐shell nanoparticles

Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering from carbon nanotube bundles adsorbed with plasmon‐tunable Ag‐core Au‐shell nanoparticles (Ag@Au nps) was carried out for the first time. By utilizing nanoparticles whose plasmon resonance peak (541, 642 nm) closely matches the commonly used Raman excitation sources (532, 632.81 nm), we can observe a large enhancement in the Raman signatures of carbon nanotubes. We obtain greater enhancement in the Raman signal for the above case when compared to nanotubes adsorbed with conventional Ag, Au or other ‘off resonant’ Ag@Au nps. The power‐dependent SERS experiment on single‐walled nanotubes (SWNTs) with resonant Ag@Au nps reveals a linear behavior between the G‐band intensity and the photon flux density, which is in agreement with the vibrational pumping model of SERS. The observed enhancement by resonance matching is pronounced for carbon nanotubes and may lead to insights into understanding nanotube–nanoparticle interaction.

Interfacial properties of g-C_3N_4/TiO_2 heterostructures studied by DFT calculations

Constructing the hetrostructure is a feasible strategy to enhance the performances of photocatalysts. However, there are still some fundamental details and mechanisms for the specific design of photocatalysts with heterostructure,which need further confirming and explain.In this work,g-C₃N₄-based heterostructures are constructed with TiO₂ in different ways,and their intrinsic factors to improve the photocatalytic activity are systematically studied by density functional theory(DFT).When g-C₃N₄ combines horizontally with TiO₂ to form a heterostructure,the interaction between them is dominated by van der Waals interaction.Although the recombination of photo-generated electron-hole pair cannot be inhibited significantly,this van der Waals interaction can regulate the electronic structures of the two components,which is conducive to the participation of photo-generated electrons and holes in the photocatalytic reaction.When the g-C₃N₄ combines vertically with TiO₂ to form a heterostructure,their interface states show obvious covalent features,which is very beneficial for the photo-generated electrons’ and holes’ transport along the opposite directions on both sides of the interface.Furthermore,the built-in electric field of g-C₃N₄/TiO₂ heterostructure is directed from TiO₂ layer to g-C₃N₄ layer under equilibrium,so the photo-generated electron-hole pairs can be spatially separated from each other.These calculated results show that no matter how g-C₃N₄ and TiO₂ are combined together,the g-C₃N₄/TiO₂ heterostructure can enhance the photocatalytic performance through corresponding ways.     

Immobilization of noble metal nanoparticles on the surface of TiO2 by the sonochemical method: photocatalytic production of hydrogen from an aqueous solution of ethanol

Sonochemically prepared Pt, Au and Pd nanoparticles were successfully immobilized onto TiO2 with the assistance of prolonged sonication. Their photocatalytic activities were evaluated in H2 production from aqueous ethanol solutions. Beside the sonochemical method, the conventional impregnation method was also employed to prepare photocatalysts. The sonochemically prepared catalysts showed higher activities than did the conventional ones. Their photocatalytic activities depended on the work functions and the dimensions of supported noble metal nanoparticles. Smaller Pt nanoparticles effectively restricted recombination of electrons and holes and provided H2 at a higher rate.     

Ultrahigh‐Density Plasmonic‐Nanoparticle‐Sensitized Semiconductor Photocatalysts Profit from Cooperative Light Harvesting and Charge Separation Processes: Experiments,Simulations, and Multifunctional Plasmonics

Here, a controlled synthesis of remarkable 3D photocatalysts is presented that is composed of ultrahigh‐density unaggregated plasmonic Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) chemically bound to vertically aligned ZnO nanorod arrays (ZNA) through bifunctional molecular linkers. Experimental probes and electromagnetic simulations of electron transfer and localized plasmonic coupling processes are exploited to gain insight into the underlying light‐irradiation‐induced interactions in the 3D ZNA–AuNPs photocatalysts. Highly dense AuNPs on ZNA surfaces act as sinks for the storage of UV‐generated electrons, which promote the separation of charge carriers and create numerous photocatalytic reaction centers. Furthermore, 3D finite‐difference time domain simulation indicates that significant visible light confinement and enhancement around the ZNA–AuNPs interfacial plasmon “hot spots” contribute to efficient conversion of light energy to electron‐hole pairs. Significantly, in comparison with the bare ZNA, the 10‐nm‐sized AuNPs‐decorated ZNA exhibits 10.6‐fold enhanced photoreaction rate in the entire UV–vis region. Moreover, various novel hybrid structures based on the plasmonic AuNPs and diverse nanostructures (films, powdered nanorods, mesoporous, and nanotubes) or functional materials (multiferroic BiFeO₃, CuInGaSe₂ absorber layers, and photoactive TiO₂) are successfully constructed using the present synthesis methodology. It may stimulate the progress in materials science toward the synthesis of multifunctional plasmonic heterostructures or devices.     

Photoinduced deposition of gold nanoparticles on TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>–WO<Subscript>3</Subscript> nanotube films as efficient photoanodes for solar water splitting

Gold-modified TiO₂–WO₃ nanotubes with different amounts of gold were obtained by two methods; photoassisted deposition and one-step electrochemical anodizing method. The morphology, crystallinity and elemental composition were studied by FE-SEM, XRD and EDX. The photoelectrochemical performance was examined under Xe light illumination in 1 M NaOH electrolyte. Characterization of the as-prepared TiO₂–WO₃ samples indicated that sodium tungstate concentration in anodizing solution significantly influenced the morphology and photoelectrochemical activity of fabricated films. Also, photoelectrochemical characterizations show that the photocatalytic activity of Au/TiO₂–WO₃ nanotubes was improved as compared with that of bare TiO₂–WO₃ nanotubes. The experimental results showed that the photocatalytic activities of Au/TiO₂–WO₃ were significantly affected by the amount of Au nanoparticles. The amount of gold nanoparticles was effectively controlled by time of photoreduction of the chloroauric acid solution. These new photoanodes showed enhanced high photocurrent density with good stability and are a highly promising photoanodes for photocatalytic hydrogen production.
