We demonstrate one-step gold nanoparticle (AuNP) coating and the surface nitridation of TiO2 nanowires (TiO2-NWs) to amplify visible-light photon reflection. The surface nitridation of TiO2-NW arrays maximizes the anchoring of AuNPs, and the subsequent reduction of the band gap energy from 3.26 eV to 2.69 eV affords visible-light activity. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation method clearly exhibits the enhancement in the strengths of localized electric fields between AuNPs and the nanowires, which significantly improves the photocatalytic (PC) performance. Both nitridation and AuNP decoration of TiO2-NWs result in beneficial effects of high (e−/h+) pair separation through healing of the oxygen vacancies. The combined effect of harvesting visible-light photons and reducing recombination in Au/N-doped TiO2-NWs promotes the photocatalytic activity towards degradation of methyl orange to an unprecedented level, ∼4 fold (1.1 × 10−2 min) more than does TiO2-NWs (2.9 × 10−3 min−1). The proposed AuNP decoration of nitridated TiO2-NW surfaces can be applied to a wide range of n-type metal oxides for photoanodes in photocatalytic applications.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
