Abstract

It has been found that the photocatalytic activity of ZnO toward the decolorization of Methyl Orange solution can be greatly improved by loading Ag on the surface of ZnO using a photodeposition method. The photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), respectively. 0.5%Ag/ZnO demonstrates 2.13 times the photocatalytic activity of pure ZnO.
