Abstract
Copper-doped NaInS 2 with hexagonal blocks morphology was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method and the photocatalytic activity was investigated. The as-synthesized products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV-vis spectroscopy. XRD patterns show that the Cu ions doping has no effect on the crystal structure of NaInS 2. UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra show that the absorption wavelength of Cu-doped NaInS 2 occurs red-shift which originated from Cu3d orbital forming impurity level. The photocatalytic activity was increased by Cu doping. The optimal doping amount of Cu 2+ is 1.5 ml.
