项目摘要

Silica coating films containing dispersed gold nanoporticles have been prepared by heat-treating the gel films obtained from tetraethoxysilane-water-ethanol-hydrochloric acid-chloroauric acid tetrahydrate solutions. It was found that the size and shape of the gold particles can be controlled by controlling the solution reaction time and amount of water in the starting solutions. In addition, aligned, elongated gold nenoparticles could be precipitated in coating films consisting of fibrous pseudoboehmite particles.Titania film electrodes containing dispersed gold or silver nanoparticles have been prepared by sol-gel method. It was found that photoresponse emerges in visible region when the metal particles are introduced to the titania photoanodes. The effect of the introduction of gold nanoparticles on the photoelectrochemical properties of dye-sensitized titania film photoanodes was also studied. The introduction of gold nanoparticles decreased the dye-induced photoresponse in the visible region, which was, however, found to be less when the overlap of the optical absorption of the gold particles and dyes was larger. This indicates that the dipole-dipole coupling between the gold particles and dye molecules dose exist, enhancing the photochemical processes occurring at the surface of the electrodes.In summary, it has been demonstrated that the size and shape of the metal nanoparticles can be controlled by controlling the microstructure of the gel matrices, where alignment of elongated metal nanoparticles is also possible. Possibility of development of new photoelectrodes with high energy conversion efficiencies was also investigated.

通过热处理由正硅酸乙酯-水-乙醇-盐酸-氯金酸四水合物溶液制得的凝胶膜，制备了含有分散的金纳米多孔体的二氧化硅涂层膜。结果表明，通过控制溶液反应时间和起始溶液中的水量，可以控制金颗粒的尺寸和形状。此外，在纤维状拟薄水铝石颗粒组成的涂膜中，可以析出排列整齐的、细长的金纳米颗粒。采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了分散有金或银纳米颗粒的二氧化钛薄膜电极。结果表明，在二氧化钛光阳极中引入金属粒子后，在可见光区出现光响应。研究了金纳米粒子的引入对染料敏化二氧化钛薄膜光阳极光电化学性能的影响。金纳米粒子的引入降低了染料诱导的光响应在可见光区，这是，然而，被发现时，金颗粒和染料的光吸收的重叠较大。这表明金颗粒和染料分子之间的偶极偶极耦合确实存在，增强了发生在电极表面的光化学过程。总之，已经证明可以通过控制凝胶基质的微观结构来控制金属纳米颗粒的尺寸和形状，其中细长的金属纳米颗粒的排列也是可能的。研究了开发具有高能量转换效率的新型光电极的可能性。
