چکیده انگلیسی
Designing of noble-metal free and morphologically controlled advanced photocatalysts for photocatalytic water splitting using solar light is of huge interest today. In the present work, novel polygonal Zn2TiO4 (ZTO) nanostructures have been synthesized by citricacid assisted solid state method for the first time and synthesized nanostructures were characterized by using various techniques like PXRD, UV-Vis-DRS, PL, FT-IR, BET, FE-SEM and TEM for their structural, optical, chemical, surface and morphological properties. The PXRD and UV-Vis-DRS analysis show the existence of cubic and tetragonal phases. FE-SEM and TEM results confirm the formation of polygonal ZTO nanostructures. Synthesised ZTO nanostructures have been potentially applied for solar light-driven photocatalytic hydrogen evaluation from water splitting and compare the photocatalytic activity with synthesized conventional Zn2TiO4 and commercially available TiO2, ZnO photocatalysts. A high rate of 529 μmolhâ1gâ1 solar light-driven photocatalytic H2 evolution has been achieved by using a small amount (5 mg) of polygonal Zn2TiO4 nanostructures from glycerol-water solution. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of the polygonal Zn2TiO4 nanostructures compare to conventional Zn2TiO4 under solar light irradiation is due to the large surface area and low recombination rate. However having the same bandgap, the polygonal Zn2TiO4 nanostructures have shown enhanced photocatalytic performance than that of commercially available TiO2, ZnO photocatalysts.
