▎ 摘　　要

Photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles in the visible light region was enhanced. TiO2-CdSe and TiO2-CdSe/CdS nanohybrids were supported on the reduced graphene oxide. These nanohybrid materials were applied as photocatalyst toward oxidation of aromatic alcohols under a mild condition and the molecular oxygen as oxidant. A plausible mechanism for the photocatalytic oxidation was also proposed. Desired nanohybrids were obtained via in situ fixation of CdSe/CdS on the surface of nanosheets of reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Finally, it was modified by TiO2 sol nanoparticles through a hydrothermal method. The obtained nanomaterials, were characterized by SEM, TEM imaging, XRD, EDAX, DRS and XPS analyses. The size of nanohybrids materials were distributed mostly in a narrow range of 50-65 and 60-75 nm for TiO2-rGO-CdSe and TiO2-rGO-CdSe/CdS, respectively. These photocatalysts showed high catalytic activity under visible light irradiation in a short reaction time and even higher selectivity rather than UV irradiation. The yield of catalytic oxidation increased at least 25-30% for TiO2-CdSe/CdS on rGO, which could be related to its higher light sensitivity and lower energy band gap. The photocatalysts were recycled and reused 8 times without significant loss of their activities due to their stability under visible light.
