چکیده
Absorption spectra (150-300 nm) of TiO2 and TiO2 modified with metal (Pt, Pd, and Au) nanoparticles were systematically measured using an attenuated total reflection-far ultraviolet spectrometer. The deposition of metal nanoparticles altered the spectral shape and intensity, indicating changes in the electronic states and photocatalytic activities of TiO2.

متن کاملSignificant enhancement of photocatalytic activity of rutile TiO2 compared with anatase TiO2 upon Pt nanoparticle deposition studied by far-ultraviolet spectroscopy.
Absorption spectra of anatase and rutile TiO2 in the 150-300 nm region before and after the deposition of Pt nanoparticles were measured. For anatase TiO2, the spectral intensity in the longer wavelength region decreased (>∼210 nm), while that in the shorter wavelength region increased (<∼210 nm). In particular, spectral band intensity in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) region (∼160 nm) was increased...
متن کاملSurface Plasmon Enhanced Photocatalysis of Au/Pt-decorated TiO2 Nanopillar Arrays
The low quantum yields and lack of visible light utilization hinder the practical application of TiO2 in high-performance photocatalysis. Herein, we present a design of TiO2 nanopillar arrays (NPAs) decorated with both Au and Pt nanoparticles (NPs) directly synthesized through successive ion layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) at room temperature. Au/Pt NPs with sizes of ~4 nm are well-disper...
