Abstract

Abstract:

The photocatalytic activity of a semiconductor-based photocatalyst largely depends on the semiconductor's intrinsic crystal and electronic properties. We have prepared two types of La and Cr co-doped SrTiO₃ photocatalysts (SrTiO₃(La,Cr)) using the polymerized complex method (PCM) and sol-gel hydrothermal method (SHM). Under λ > 420-nm visible light irradiation, only the Pt-loaded SrTiO₃(La,Cr) prepared by the SHM showed efficient photocatalytic activities for both H₂ evolution in the presence of an I^- sacrificial reagent and for Z-scheme overall water splitting when it was coupled with the Pt-loaded WO₃in the presence of I^- and IO₃^- as the shuttle redox mediator. The superior photocatalytic activity of SrTiO₃(La,Cr) prepared by the SHM has been ascribed to its more negative conduction-band position, higher carrier concentration, and higher carrier mobility, demonstrating that the design and synthesis of an H₂-evolution photocatalyst with appropriate electronic properties is crucial for achieving Z-scheme overall water splitting.

Key words: Strontium titanate, Photocatalysis, Water splitting, Z-scheme, Hydrogen evolution
