Porous ZnO/Co3O4 heteronanostructures are successfully fabricated by a one-step solid state conversion of a novel [(Zn)x–(Co)7−x(BDC)(DHS)]·nH2O (x = 1, 3, 4, 6)] nano coordination polymers (NCPs).

ABSTRACTGold (Au) nanoparticles were synthesized and deposited on the perovskite SrTiO3 (STO) via a one-step solution plasma sputter deposition (SPSD) without any reducing reagents at ambient condition. Good dispersion of the Au nanoparticles deposited on the STO surface was clearly observed. The synthesized Au nanoparticles were well-crystallized with a spherical shape and preferably exhibited multiply twinned structure. An average diameter of Au nanoparicles was estimated to be 6.1 ± 1.4 nm by transmission electron microscopy. Enhanced photocatalytic activity was found for the Au-STO when compared to the pure STO, as investigated from the degradation of methylene blue solution under ultraviolet and visible light irradiation. The SPSD seems to be a rapid and facile approach to prepare the Au nanoparticles supported on the metal oxide for photocatalytic applications.

The amalgamation of a wide optical band gap photocatalyst with visible-light-active CdO quantum dots (QDs) as sensitizers is one of the most efficient ways to improve photocatalytic performance under visible light irradiation.
