Nano-size effects on CuO/TiO2catalysts for highly efficient H2 production under solar light irradiation†
Abstract
Solar light induced interfacial charge transfer of electrons from TiO2 to CuO in a water–glycerol mixture produced 99 823 μmol h−1 g−1catalyst of hydrogen gas. The dispersed CuO/TiO2 photocatalyst in solution exhibited uni-directional electron flow and capture at the Schottky barrier facilitating charge separation and
