Abstract:
A straightforward strategy is developed to improve the injection efficiency of hot electrons in a Ag/TiO2 plasmonic photocatalyst by introducing Fe as a dopant. The Fe dopant energy level formed within the bandgap of TiO2 provides an extra electron transfer channel for transferring the hot electrons induced by plasmonic Ag nanoparticles.
