Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Two-dimensional crystals prepared by exfoliation of layered compounds have homogeneous surface and thickness. It is possible to create extreme devices and catalyst structures using the nanosheets. In this study, we prepared nanosheet pn-junction photocatalyst with a 1-nm thickness, and it was found that the pn-junction showed light energy conversion property. In addition, we investigated a photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction pathway on a cocatalyst site using TiO2 nanosheets doped with Rh at Ti sites as one-atom co-catalysts. A hydride species adsorbed on the one-atom Rh dopant cocatalyst site was confirmed experimentally as the intermediate state for hydrogen evolution, which was consistent with the results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
