The effects of bifunctional linker and reflux time on the surface properties and photocatalytic activity of CdTe quantum dots decorated KTaO3 composite photocatalysts
Abstrakt
Novel CdTe-KTaO3composite photocatalysts were successfully synthesized by using thioglycolic acid(TGA) or 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) as linker molecules which facilitated attachment of CdTequantum dots to the surface of KTaO3nanocubes. The as-prepared photocatalysts were characterizedby UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) specific surface area, X-rayphotoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and photoluminescence (PL) emission spectroscopy. The obtainedCdTe-decorated KTaO3composites showed greatly improved photocatalytic performance for degra-dation of toluene in the gas phase under LEDs light irradiation (max= 415 nm) over pristine KTaO3.TGA-functionalized CdTe-KTaO3composites exhibited higher photocatalytic activity as compared withMPA-capped CdTe-KTaO3hybrids which can be ascribed to the shorter chain length of TGA moleculeas compared with MPA linker and therefore faster electron transfer from TGA-CdTe nanodots toperovskite-type potassium tantalate. The significance of quantum size effect of CdTe QDs for enhancingphotocatalytic performance of CdTeQDs-decorated KTaO3was also discussed.
