    Abstract

    Abstract Image

    A method using biomolecules to precisely fabricate the morphology of metal nanoparticles immobilized on the surface of a semiconductor using biomolecules is described. A biotin moiety (Biot) is introduced onto the surface of a gold nanoparticle (AuNP) by covalent coupling with α-lipoic acid to assemble AuNPs in the presence of streptavidin (STV). The assembly of Biot-AuNP/STV is immobilized on the surface of TiO2 chemically modified with 1-(3-aminopropyl)silatrane (APS) to provide a positively charged surface. The Au content immobilized on the surface of TiO2 is clearly increased to 9.5 wt % (Au) as a result of the STV–biotin interaction and the electrostatic interaction between negatively charged Biot-AuNPs and the positively charged surface of APS/TiO2. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis reveals that the composite has an ordered surface geometry in which Biot-AuNPs are spread over the composite surface in two dimensions. The photocatalytic activity toward decomposition of methyl orange dye promoted by this composite is 55%, which is higher than that of the other composites. The Biot-AuNP/STV@APS/TiO2 composite efficiently reduces O2 molecules at Eonset = −0.23 V vs Ag|AgCl, which is more positive than that of other composites (Eonset = −0.40 to −0.32 V). The result suggests that an increased number of AuNPs immobilized in close contact with the TiO2 surface facilitates photoinduced charge transfer. This strategy, which takes advantage of the specific interactions provided by biomolecules and the chemical modification on the surface, has remarkable potential for efficient fabrication of metal nanoparticles on the surface of the semiconductor, which accelerates the reduction of oxygen molecules.
