Title: Facile synthesis of sunlight-driven AgCI:Ag plasmonic nanophotocatalyst.

Journal Article · · Adv. Mater.

Highly efficient plasmonic photocatalysts of AgCl:Ag hybrid nanoparticles are successfully synthesized via a one-pot synthetic approach involving a precipitation reaction followed by polyol reduction. The as-synthesized nanoparticles exhibit high catalytic performance under visible light and sunlight for decomposing organics, such as methylene blue.
