报告摘要：
TiO2 doped with noble metals (Ag and Au) has been investigated, resulting to effectively transfer the plasmon electrons from noble metals to titanium dioxide and then improve the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Recently, many narrow band photocatalysts, such as Ag-based semiconductors combined with TiO2 have been paid more attention, as combination with these semiconductors could lead to expanding the absorption spectrum from UV to the visible light region to effectively utilize the solar light (1). More recently, a novel Ag3PO4 photocatalyst with band gap of 2.43 eV has been reported (2), possessing remarkable photocatalytic ability for organic dye degradation. Therefore, in this work a highly efficient photocatalyst P/Ag/Ag2O/Ag3PO4/TiO2 has been synthesized and followed by the characterization of SEM, TEM, XRD, EDS, XPS, UV-vis and PL respectively.
XRD, TEM and XPS results indicated that Ag, Ag2O and Ag3PO4 nanoparticles were successfully doped on TiO2. P/Ag/Ag2O/Ag3PO4/TiO2 composite showed the strong absorption in visible light region and high separation efficiency of electron-hole pairs. In summary, P/Ag/Ag2O/Ag3PO4/TiO2 photocatalyst has been successfully synthesized, showing improved photocatalytic ability which is ascribed to the plasmon resonance of metallic silver and the narrow band gap of composite photocatalyst. Therefore, as-prepared P/Ag/Ag2O/Ag3PO4/TiO2 photosensitizer has the potential for environmental and energy application under visible light.
