High performance Au–Cu alloy for enhanced visible-light water splitting driven by coinage metals

Abstract

A Au–Cu alloy strategy is, for the first time, demonstrated to be effective in enhancing visible-light photocatalytic H2 evolution via promoting metal interband transitions. Au3Cu/SrTiO3, in which oxidation of Cu was successfully restrained, showed the highest visible-light H2 evolution activity.
