Single Atom Ag Bonding Between PF3T Nanocluster and TiO Leads the Ultra-Stable Visible-Light-Driven Photocatalytic H Production.

Atomic Ag cluster bonding is employed to reinforce the interface between PF3T nano-cluster and TiO nanoparticle. With an optimized Ag loading (Ag/TiO = 0.5 wt%), the Ag atoms will uniformly disperse on TiO thus generating a high density of intermediate states in the band gap to form the electron channel between the terthiophene group of PF3T and the TiO in the hybrid composite (denoted as T@Ag05-P).
