Abstract

In 0.8M 0.2TaO 4 (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) photocatalysts crystallize in the same crystal structure: wolframite type, monoclinic crystal structure with space group P2/c. The rate of H 2 evolution from an aqueous methanol solution under UV irradiation significantly changed with the variation of doping atoms, and In 0.8Ni 0.2TaO 4 showed the highest activity. Under visible light irradiation ( λ>420 nm), H 2 and O 2 were evolved from an aqueous methanol and silver nitrate solution, respectively, using the photocatalysts, In 0.8M 0.2TaO 4 (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu).
