Abstract
Description
(1) Technical field:
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photocatalytic water hydrogen production, specifically, to a carbon nitride semiconductor material simultaneously loaded with platinum atoms of different coordination numbers and a preparation method thereof, namely, a CN-PtN with photocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance. 4 / 6 Semiconductor materials and methods for preparing the same. (2) Background technology:
[0002] Statistics show that global economic expansion is driving exponential growth in energy demand, with annual consumption of traditional fossil energy projected to double by 2050 compared to current levels. While hydrocarbon fuels continue to support approximately 80% of the world's primary energy supply, their large-scale use has triggered multiple ecological crises that cannot be ignored: greenhouse gas accumulation is causing imbalances in the climate system, fine particulate matter pollution is causing frequent public health incidents, and the human health index is significantly reduced.
[0003] Faced with the dual challenges of energy security and ecological carrying capacity, a new energy transition is imminent. It is worth noting that the solar radiation energy received by the earth's surface every hour (about 4.3×10 20 J) has already exceeded the current global annual energy consumption. This nearly unlimited endowment of clean energy makes it a key alternative to the traditional energy matrix. However, due to the inherent intermittent nature of photovoltaic technology and bottlenecks in grid-scale energy storage, the academic community has gradually focused on semiconductor photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen. By converting solar energy into high-energy-density hydrogen chemical energy in a targeted manner, it is expected to establish an energy transmission system that is both environmentally friendly and economically viable.
[0004] However, since most single semiconductor materials are limited by their inherent catalytic activity and can only exhibit a limited number of exposed active sites, researchers often enhance their inherent activity by introducing highly active co-catalysts, such as metal oxides. [1] , metal particles [2] , clusters, and single atoms [3]. Especially for single atoms, due to their atomic-level dispersion, it can achieve nearly 100% atomic utilization. In addition, extensive studies have shown that low-coordinated single-atom configurations have better catalytic activity, while high-coordinated or even fully coordinated single atoms will greatly reduce their activity due to the serious lack of adsorption sites. However, in the photocatalytic system, fully coordinated terpyridine ruthenium (terpyridine platinum) molecules can be used as photosensitive units to continuously transfer photogenerated electrons to the active sites. However, the only drawback is that this complex molecule is easily degraded to form metal particles under photolysis conditions. Based on this, preventing the degradation and agglomeration of such complex molecules is an important step in promoting the application of photosensitizers in photocatalysis. Anchoring photosensitizers on semiconductor platforms using strong coordination bonds is an effective measure to prevent degradation and inactivation. In 2016, Soo YoungPark et al. used carboxylated terpyridine ruthenium as the basic building unit and constructed MOF using strong coordination bonds to achieve stable anchoring of the photosensitive unit. [4] In addition, constructing single-atom active sites on semiconductor platforms (such as classic carbon nitride-Pt single-atom catalysts) can achieve higher photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity. [5] However, only the influence of a single site (photosensitive site or active site) on the material is considered. Therefore, constructing low-coordinated single-atom active sites and high-coordinated photosensitive sites on a semiconductor carrier platform may be an effective measure to improve the efficiency of photogenerated charge separation and reduce non-radiative fluorescence recombination.
[0005] The present invention uses carbon nitride (CN) as a single-atom carrier platform, and simultaneously anchors Pt single atoms with four-coordinate and six-coordinate coordination numbers on it through a two-step loading method. The four-coordinate Pt single atom serves as the active site, and the six-coordinate Pt single atom serves as the photosensitive site, which greatly shortens the migration distance of the photogenerated charge, greatly improves the utilization rate of the carrier, and enhances the photocatalytic hydrogen production activity of the catalyst.
