Abstract

Visible-light-driven Cr-doped SrTiO3 was synthesized through ultrasonic chemical method. Its specific surface area is 54.3m2g–1 due to the relatively small particle size. X-ray diffraction pattern and X-ray photoelectron spectra confirmed the crystal structure and Sr substitution. UV–vis absorption spectra indicated that the Cr doping can lead to visible-light absorption. In addition, the oxygen vacancy in Cr-doped SrTiO3 also showed visible-light absorption. The obtained Cr-doped SrTiO3 was used to photocatalytically reduce CO2 into CH4 with a yield of 8.8μmolg–1 after 10-h reaction. Moreover, the Cr-doped SrTiO3 exhibited good photostability.
