Galvanic Deposition of Pt Nanoparticles on Black TiO 2 Nanotubes for Hydrogen Evolving Cathodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Cover Feature shows the spontaneous galvanic deposition of metallic Pt nanoparticles on top, but also inner TiO2 nanotube surfaces. High-aspect-ratio and heavily reduced serves as sacrificial template during this electroless deposition. A high-performing stable hydrogen evolution cathode in acidic media is demonstrated prepared via minimal engineering low noble metal loadings. More information can be found Full Paper by A.

Impact of three different TiO 2 morphologies on hydrogen evolution by methonal assisted water - splitting : nanoparticles , nanotubes and
Increasing the activity of a photocatalyst goes through the improvement of both its absorption (light) and adsorption (reactant) properties. For a given semiconducting material, the charge carrier separation is also a very important step. Properly combining chosen phases is one option to improve this separation (example of the commercial P25) and depositing platinum on the surface of the cataly...
متن کاملColloquium Study of Nd 3 , Pd 2 , Pt 4 , and Fe 3 dopant effect on photoreactivity of TiO 2 nanoparticles
The metallorganic chemical vapor deposition method was successfully used to synthesize pure TiO2 and Nd3 -, Pd2 -, Pt4 -, and Fe3 -doped TiO2 nanoparticles. Polycrystalline TiO2 structure was verified with x-ray diffraction, which showed typical characteristic anatase reflections without any separate dopant-related peaks. Transmission electron microscopy observations confirmed the existence of ...
متن کاملELECTROPHORETIC DEPOSITION OF PALLADIUM NANOPARTICLES ON InP FOR HYDROGEN SENSORS
Semiconducting, insulating, and metallic nanoparticles have attracted considerable interest due to their size-dependent, quantum confinement characteristics, which make them attractive for a wide range of optical, magnetic, and electronic devices. We report on the deposition of Pd nanoparticles prepared with reverse micellae of water/AOT/isooctane solution on the surface of n-type InP substrate...
متن کاملKinetic study of Pt nanocrystal deposition on Ag nanowires with clean surfaces via galvanic replacement
Without using any templates or surfactants, this study develops a high-yield process to prepare vertical Ag-Pt core-shell nanowires (NWs) by thermally assisted photoreduction of Ag NWs and successive galvanic replacement between Ag and Pt ions. The clean surface of Ag nanowires allows Pt ions to reduce and deposit on it and forms a compact sheath comprising Pt nanocrystals. The core-shell struc...
متن کاملSubstrate-enhanced electroless deposition of metal nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes.
By simply supporting carbon nanotubes with a metal substrate of a redox potential lower than that of the metal ions to be reduced into nanoparticles, we have developed a facile yet versatile and effective substrate-enhanced electroless deposition (SEED) method for functionalizing nanotubes with a large variety of metal nanoparticles, including those otherwise impossible by more conventional ele...
