Photocatalyst, Water Splitting, Ruddlesden-Popper, Hydrogen productionAbstract
Three compounds of the K2Ln2/3Ta2O7 (Ln = La, Nd, Pr) cation-deficient Ruddlesden-Popper series were prepared by the Pechini (polymeric complex) method. The crystal structures of the hydrated form of these compounds were determined by Rietveld analysis of the X-ray powder diffraction data and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM). The samples were also analyzed to determine specific area (BET), degree of hydration (TGA), and photocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution from water and aqueous methanol solution.
