Synergistic effects of doped Fe3+ and deposited Au on improving the photocatalytic activity of TiO2

Fe³⁺ doped together with Au deposited TiO₂ (Au/Fe³⁺–TiO₂) was successfully prepared, which shows excellent photocatalytic activity for degradation of methyl orange (MO) under both UV and visible light (λ > 420 nm) illumination. Fe³⁺ has been confirmed by EPR to substitute for Ti⁴⁺ in the TiO₂ lattice, and Au exists as Au⁰ on the surface of the photocatalyst indicated by the results of XRD. Fe³⁺ and Au have synergistic effects on improving the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂. A proposed mechanism concerning the synergistic effects is discussed to explain the improvement of the photocatalytic activities.

Solvent free liquid phase oxidation of benzyl alcohol using Au supported catalysts prepared using a sol immobilization technique

Solvent free oxidation of benzyl alcohol was investigated in the absence of a base using Au catalysts prepared by sol immobilization on titania and carbon supports. Comparison between the Au supported catalysts revealed that activity and distribution of products was dependent on the nature of support and heat treatment. Specifically, heat pre-treatment of the Au catalysts has a beneficial effect in terms of activity, but is detrimental in terms of selectivity to the benzaldehyde. We conclude that sol immobilization is a suitable technique for preparing gold catalysts with small particle size and narrow particle size distributions and very high activity and selectivity for benzyl alcohol oxidation.     

Novel fluorescence sensor based on covalent immobilization of 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole via electrostatically assembled gold nanoparticle layer

A novel technique of immobilizing indicator dyes by electrostatic adsorption and covalent bonding to fabricate optical sensors was developed. 3-Amino-9-ethylcarbazole (AEC) was attached to the outmost surface of quartz glass slide via aminosilanizing the slide, crosslinking chitosan, adsorbing Au nanoparticle, self-assembling HS(CH₂)₁₁OH, and coupling AEC. Thus, an AEC-immobilized optical sensor was obtained. The sensor exhibits a wide linear response range from 7.0×10⁻⁷ to 1.0×10⁻⁴ mol/L and a correlation coefficient of 0.995 9 for the detection of 2-nitrophenol. The detection limit and response time of the sensor are 1.0×10⁻⁷ mol/L and less than 10 s, respectively. The fluorescence intensity of the used sensor can be restored to the blank value by simply rinsing with blank buffer. A very effective matrix for immobilizing indicator dye is provided by the proposed technique, which is adaptable to other indicator dyes with amino groups besides AEC.

Adsorption of mercaptopropionic acid onto Au(1 1 1): Part II. Effect on copper electrodeposition

Copper deposition in the presence of an organic additive (3-mercaptopropionic acid, MPA) was studied by cyclic voltammetry and in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and the results are compared to those for additive-free solutions. It is shown that underpotential deposition (upd) of copper onto a fully MPA-covered electrode produces a defect-rich substrate, but the defects are blocked by the dense organic film for bulk deposition, resulting in a low number of nuclei. A grain-refining effect of MPA, however, was found, when Cu deposition was initiated shortly after addition of MPA to the solution, i.e., for a low-coverage MPA adlayer.     

Preparation and spectral analysis of gold nanoparticles using magnetron sputtering and thermal annealing

Gold(Au) nanoparticles were prepared on Au-fi lm-coated K9 glass and silicon substrates by direct current(DC) magnetron sputtering and thermal annealing treatment. The effects of substrate material, annealing temperature, and time on morphologies of Au nanoparticles were investigated, and the formation mechanism of Au nanoparticles was discussed. The experimental results indicate that silicon substrate is more suitable for the formation of Au nanoparticles. On a silicon substrate, Au nanoparticles formed with good spherical shapes at temperature over 700 ℃. It was also found by spectral analysis that the fi eld enhancement factor of the island-shaped Au particles was smaller than that of the granular Au particles; the better the spherical shape as well as the smaller the size and spacing of Au particles, the higher the light absorption rate; the absorption peak had a red shift with increasing particle size and spacing.

Growth of Au nanocrystals on CdS nanorods

Nanorods of S²⁻ rich CdS were synthesized by a reaction of excess S versus Cd precursors in the presence of ethylene diamine. The photoluminescence (PL) emission from the S²⁻ rich CdS nanorods was broad with a peak at ∼710 nm, which was 40 nm longer in wavelength than the PL peak from Cd²⁺ rich CdS (∼670 nm) nanorods. The influence of surface electron or hole trap states on the luminescent pathway of CdS nanorods will be discussed to explain these shifts in wavelength. Nanocrystals of Au ∼2 nm in size were grown on S²⁻ rich surfaces of CdS nanorods. Significant luminescence quenching was observed from the Au nanocrystals on the CdS nanorods due to interfacial charge separation. Change separation by the Au nanocrystals on the CdS resulted in enhanced photocatalytic degradation of Procion red mix-5B (PRB) dye in an aqueous solution under UV light irradiation.
