In this work, a new AuPd bimetallic cocatalyst decorated graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalysts with high H-2 evolution activity was synthesized via an in situ chemical deposition method. The physical and photophysical properties of the as-prepared AuPd/g-C3N4 were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electron spin resonance (ESR) and surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPV). The photocatalytic H-2 evolution experiments indicate that the AuPd bimetallic co-catalysts can effectively promote the separation efficiency of photo-generated charge carriers in g-C3N4, and consequently enhance the H-2 evolution activity. The 0.5 wt% AuPd/g-C3N4 catalyst shows the highest catalytic activity, and corresponding H-2 evolution rate is 326 mu mol h(-1) g(-1), which are enhanced by 3.5 and 1.6 times compared with that of pristine Au/g-C3N4 and Pd/g-C3N4 under visible light irradiation. The photocatalyst can maintain photocatalytic activity after 4 cycles. A possible photocatalystic mechanism of AuPd bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) on the enhancement of visible light performance is proposed to guide further improvement for other desirable functional materials.
