Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a photocatalyst for hydrogen production from water. The photocatalyst comprises triphenylphosphine ruthenium (RuP) complex. The RuP complex is a co-catalyst with graphitic carbon nitride. The present disclosure also discloses a method of synthesizing a photocatalyst for hydrogen production from water. The method comprises forming a suspension of graphitic carbon nitride; adding triphenylphosphine ruthenium complex (RuP) to the suspension; and drying the suspension to form dried graphitic carbon nitride integrated with RuP.
