摘要：The photocatalytic activity of a semiconductor‐based photocatalyst largely depends on the semiconductor’s intrinsic crystal and electronic *** have prepared two types of La and Cr co‐doped SrTiO3photocatalysts(SrTiO3(La,Cr))using the polymerized complex method(PCM)and sol‐gel hydrothermal method(SHM).Under?>420‐nm visible light irradiation,only the Pt‐loaded SrTiO3(La,Cr)prepared by the SHM showed efficient photocatalytic activities for both H2evolution in the presence of an I?sacrificial reagent and for z‐scheme overall water splitting when it was coupled with the Pt‐loaded WO3in the presence of I?and IO3?as the shuttle redox *** superior photocatalytic activity of SrTiO3(La,Cr)prepared by the SHM has been ascribed to its more negative conduction‐band position,higher carrier concentration,and higher carrier mobility,demonstrating that the design and synthesis of an H2‐evolution photocatalyst with appropriate electronic properties is crucial for achieving z‐scheme overall water splitting.

摘要：A two‐step photocatalytic water splitting system,termed a“z‐scheme system”,was achieved using zn‐doped g‐C3N4for H2evolution and BiVO4for O2evolution with Fe2+/Fe3+as a shuttle redox mediator.H2and O2were evaluated simultaneously when the doping amount of zinc was10%.Moreover,zn‐doped(10%)g‐C3N4synthesized by an impregnation method showed superior active ability to form the z‐scheme with BiVO4than by in‐situ synthesis.X‐ray diffraction,UV‐Vis spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the *** was determined that more zn?N bonds could be formed on the surface of g‐C3N4by impregnation,which could facilitate charge transfer.
