Abstract

TiO2 mesoporous crystal has been prepared by one-step corroding process via an oriented attachment (OA) mechanism with SrTiO3 as precursor. High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms confirm its mesoporous crystal structure. Well-dispersed ruthenium (Ru) in the mesoporous nanocrystal TiO2 can be attained by the same process using Ru-doped precursor SrTi1–xRuxO3. Ru is doped into lattice of TiO2, which is identified by HRTEM and super energy dispersive spectrometer (super-EDS) elemental mapping. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) suggest the pentavalent Ru but not tetravalent, while partial Ti in TiO2 accept an electron from Ru and become Ti3+, which is observed for the first time. This Ru-doped TiO2 performs high activity for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline solution. First-principles calculations simulate the HER process and prove TiO2:Ru with Ru5+ and Ti3+ holds high HER activity with appropriate hydrogen-adsorption Gibbs free energies (ΔGH).
