The application discloses an in-situ testing method for an
electron transmission mechanism of an
oxygen vacancy modified SrTiO3@Ag
nanotube photocatalyst, and belongs to the technical field of
energy materials. The method steps are as follows: first, SrTiO3 nanotubes are prepared by an in-situ
electrospinning method; a SrTiO3@Ag
nanotube is prepared by using a photoreduction method to anchor
Ag nanoparticles near
oxygen vacancies to construct a Schottky
heterojunction. The
electron absorption characteristics of the
oxygen vacancies and the
Ag nanoparticles provide a driving force for the transfer of photo-generated electrons, and the synergistic effect of the oxygen vacancies and the
Ag nanoparticles greatly promotes the separation of photo-generated carriers. Subsequently, the migration direction of the photo-generated carriers in the
system is characterized by in-situ
irradiation XPS technology. By using the in-situ testing method, it is proved that the oxygen vacancies can serve as a "bridge" to transfer the photo-generated electrons activated by the SrTiO3 nanotubes to the
active site Ag nanoparticles for a photocatalytic reduction reaction, and the
electron transmission mechanism under the catalytic reaction condition is revealed. The method can provide a more convenient, more scientific and more actual scene conforming research mode for the research on the
electron transmission mechanism of a photocatalyst with vacancies.
