Abstract:
Here we demonstrate an efficient approach to enhance the photocatalytic performance of titania via depositing Pd/Ba nanocomposite (Ag/Sr-NPs@P25) over the surfaces for H2 generation. The Pd/Ba-NPs are in-situ deposited at the titania via optimized chemical reduction method. The catalytic impact of Pd and Ba nanoparticles in the photocatalytic reactions are further revealed. Ba in the form of barium oxide promotes electron transfer from the semiconductor surface to palladium nanoparticles by increasing the fermi level of the titania-support. The structural and morphological characterizations of as synthesized photocatalysts are carried out using UV-Vis/drs, XRD, PL, TEM, and XPS techniques, based upon which the mechanistic insights are justified and addressed.
