Au/SrTiO₃ plasmonic nanophotocatalysts were prepared by hydrothermal and photo-deposition methods. The structure, composition, morphology, size and optical property of the as-prepared photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, EDS-mapping and UV-Visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The photocatalytic hydrogen-production performance of Au/SrTiO₃ plasmonic photocatalysts was tested under visible light. The results showed that SrTiO₃ nanoparticles were successfully prepared by hydrothermal method. Due to the surface plasmon resonance effect of Au, the SrTiO₃ nanoparticles exhibited improved light absorption in the visible-light region. Moreover, the effect of different Au loading amounts on the photocatalytic hydrogen-production activity of SrTiO₃ plasmonic nanophotocatalysts was investigated. Among them, the 5%Au/SrTiO₃ photocatalyst showed the highest hydrogen production activity. In addition, the photocatalytic mechanism was also discussed.
