Abstract

We report a facile, one-pot route based on thermal decomposition of a single molecular precursor for preparing spherical, eggplant-shaped Janus Ag–Ag₂S nanoparticles; these Ag–Ag₂S Janus-coupled P25 TiO₂ composites show a higher photocatalytic efficiency than those of the Ag₂S NPs coupled P25 TiO₂ composites and pure P25 TiO₂.
