Metallic Ni nanoparticles were successfully prepared on the surface of titania thin film substrate by a novel method, named as chemical vapor reductive deposition (CVRD) method. The growth of the nanoparticles was based on the specific adsorption and heterogeneous nucleation on the surface of substrate, not via vapor-phase formation and subsequent sedimentation. The nanoparticle size was found to be well controllable between 10 and 30 nm by the preparation time and vapor pressure of metal complex precursor. ESCA and electron diffraction results clearly demonstrated Ni nanoparticles as metallic. Titania thin film with metallic Ni nanoparticles on its surface showed high efficiency in their photocatalysis of hydrogen evolution from decomposition of ethanol.
Metallic Ni nanoparticles were successfully prepared on titania thin films by a newly developed chemical vapor reductive deposition method. Obtained Ni/titania catalysts were found to enhance the photocatalytic activity compared to that of titania.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
