摘要
In the present work, we focused on geometrical (single- or double-tipped) and compositional (Pt or Au) variations of active metal components in a well-defined CdSe nanorod system. These colloidal nanostructures were employed for photocatalytic hydrogen generation from water under the identical reaction conditions with visible light irradiation. The catalysts exhibited significant dependency of the catalytic activity, specifically on the catalyst geometry and the choice of the metal tips, determined by the energetic consideration of electron transfer to the metal tips and hole transfer to the sacrificial reagents on the CdSe nanorods.
