Towards enhancing photocatalytic hydrogen generation: Which is more important, alloy synergistic effect or plasmonic effect?

Journal Article Xu, Zhenhe ; Kibria, Md Golam ; AlOtaibi, Bandar ; ... - Applied Catalysis. B, Environmental

Synergistic effect in alloys and plasmonic effect have both been explored for increasing the efficiency of water splitting. In depth understanding and comparison of their respective contributions in certain promising systems is highly desired for catalyst development, yet rarely investigated so far. We report herein our thorough investigations on a series of highly interesting nanocomposites composed of Pt, Au and C3N4 nanocomponents, which are designed to benefit from both synergistic and plasmonic effects. Detailed analyses led to an important conclusion that the contribution from the synergistic effect was at least 3.5 times that from the plasmonic effect in the bestmore »« less

Synergizing plasmonic Au nanocages with 2D MoS ₂ nanosheets for significant enhancement in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Journal Article Peng, Rui ; Ma, Xiaohan ; Hood, Zachary D. ; ... - Journal of Materials Chemistry. A

Plasmonic enhancement of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution has been achieved under visible light illumination by integrating strongly plasmonic metal particles such as gold (Au) with semiconducting materials. To understand the effect of plasmon resonance on the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), in this work, we study the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) over Au nanocages with systematically tunable localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties dispersed on an Al₂O₃ support and covered with multiphasic 2D MoS₂ nanosheets. It is interesting to observe that by tuning the LSPR wavelength of Au nanocages, an optimal enhancement in the photocatalytic HER can be obtained over themore »« less

Study of synergistic effects and compositional dependence of hydrogen evolution reaction on MoxNiy alloy thin films in alkaline media

Journal Article Bodnarova, Renata ; Kozejova, Miroslava ; Latyshev, Vitalii ; ... - Molecular Catalysis (Online)

In this paper hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on the molybdenum-nickel thin films has been studied. The Mo_xNi_y thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A change in the crystal structure of the samples prepared at different temperatures was observed. The structure of the samples prepared at 25 °C are bcc or amorphous. The structure of alloys sputtered at 800 °C changed to fcc. Tafel plots were constructed for each Mo_xNi_y alloy sample. The mechanism of HER was determined from Tafel slope analysis. Values of charge transfer resistance were also determined by impedance spectroscopy. Themore »« less

Plasmonic Au nanoparticles embedding enhances the activity and stability of CdS for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Journal Article Yu, Guiyang ; Wang, Xiang ; Cao, Jungang ; ... - ChemComm

A composite photocatalyst of embedding plasmonic Au nanoparticle into CdS (Au@CdS) was prepared with a cysteine-assisted hydrothermal approach. This structure could take fully advantage of electromagnetic fields at the surface of the Au nanoparticles under visible light illumination. The photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity of CdS could be significantly improved. Without the use of any other metal or metal oxide as cocatalysts, the quantum efficiency can reach 12.1 % over 0.5%Au@CdS at 420 nm. When using 0.1%Pt as a cocatalyst, the quantum efficiency of 0.5%Au@CdS can be further improved to 45.6%. This efficiency can be maintained more than 100 h inmore »« less
