| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Size- and color-controlled Ag nano particles(NPs) were successfully synthesized within the mesopore of SBA-15 by the microwave-assisted alcohol reduction. The Ag NPs exhibited catalytic activity in the H2 production from NH3BH3 under the dark condition,and higher catalytic performance was observed in smaller Ag NPs. In addition,the catalytic performance was specifically enhanced by light irradiation.It should be noted that the order of increasing catalytic performance was in close agreement with the order of absorption intensity by the Ag-LSPR. From the results of thermal effect,wavelength dependence and charge scavenger,it can be concluded that the H2 production reaction was promoted by Lewis acid effect of positive charge generated by charge separation derived from Ag-LSPR.This study verified a promising approach for the preparation of highly-ordered metallic NPs and the enhancement of catalytic performance under mild condition.
