Problems solved by technology

However, the photocatalytic activity of pure InZnS is low, and it is necessary to modify its surface
[0004] Studies have found that depositing some noble metals on the semiconductor surface can effectively capture photogenerated electrons and inhibit the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, which is one of the effective methods to improve the performance of semiconductor photocatalysts. On the surface of semiconductors, the obtained noble metal particles are large in size and unevenly distributed, resulting in a large amount of noble metal loading and high catalyst preparation costs, which are not suitable for industrial production.

Abstract

The invention relates to a carbon quantum dot, precious metal and zinc indium sulfide composite photocatalyst and a preparation method thereof. The composite photocatalyst contains a hexagonal-phase zinc indium sulfide (ZnIn2S4) matrix, and reduced carbon quantum dots and precious metal particles which are carried on the surface of the ZnIn2S4 matrix, wherein the ZnIn2S4 matrix is of a peony-flower-shaped structure, the particle size of the matrix is 0.1-10 micrometers and the BET specific surface area of the matrix is 10-200 m<2>/g; the particle size of the carbon quantum dots and the precious metal particles is 1-10 nm; precious metal refers to one or a mixture of some of gold, platinum, silver or palladium. The composite photocatalyst has high catalytic activity (with a hydrogen production rate up to 1mmol.h<-1>g<-1>) under irradiation of visible light (more than or equal to 400nm), and has long service life (over 50 hours).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photocatalysis, and in particular relates to a composite photocatalyst of carbon quantum dots, noble metals and indium-zinc sulfide and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Fujishima and Honda at TiO since 1972 2 Since the photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen has been realized on the electrode (A.Fujishima, K.Honda, Nature1972, 238, 37.), this technology of directly converting solar energy into chemical energy through semiconductor photocatalysts is widely used in the field of environment and energy. It has great application prospects and has received extensive attention. [0003] In sunlight, ultraviolet light accounts for a small proportion of only 4%, while visible light accounts for as much as 43%. Therefore, in recent years, people have paid more and more attention to the development of photocatalysts that respond to visible light. Recently rep...
