Significant enhancement in photocatalytic reduction of water to hydrogen by Au/Cu2ZnSnS4 nanostructure

Enhanced photocatalytic activities by Au core Novel Au/Cu 2ZnSnS4 core/shell nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized for the first time via wet chemistry approach. The insertion of Au core into CZTS NPs dramatically enhances light absorption due to surface plasmon resonance effect, especially in the Vis...

description Enhanced photocatalytic activities by Au core Novel Au/Cu 2ZnSnS4 core/shell nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized for the first time via wet chemistry approach. The insertion of Au core into CZTS NPs dramatically enhances light absorption due to surface plasmon resonance effect, especially in the Vis-NIR region. Au/CZTS core/shell NPs show much higher photocatalytic activities for hydrogen evolution compared with other CZTS nanostructures. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH and Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
