More Information
Summary:The present invention provides photocatalysts capable of catalytic activity in the visible range of light comprising platinum group metal nanoparticles deposited on a metal oxide support. The nanoparticles have surface plasmon resonance in the visible range of light. The invention also provides processes for preparing the photocatalysts, methods of liquid and gas purification using the photocatalysts of the invention and devices for the same.
