Graphenodization: Facile Synthesis of TiO2 Nanotube Arrays Covered with Reduced Graphene Oxide for CO2 reduction |
초록 |
One-dimensional TiO2 nanotubes arrays(TNT) are the subject of great current interest among the photocatalysis research community, however the relatively large band gap that provides TiO2 with its excellent charge corrosion stability severely limits its absorption of solar spectrum energy. With the aim of replacing expensive noble metal co-catalysts, here in we report a noble metal-free novel nanostructured photocatalytic material fabricated using a facile synthesis approach, comprising a one-dimensional array of TNT covered with a reduced grapheneoxide-TiO2 nanoparticles (rGO-TiO2NP) composite. The novel nanostructure exhibits significantly improved photocurrent density and photochemical activity via conversion of CO2 into methane under simulated solar light irradiation. The improved performance appears due to the combined effect of enhanced light absorption and effective charge separation promoted by the rGO. |
