Article Synopsis
- Designing efficient organic polymer photocatalysts for hydrogen production using visible and near-infrared (NIR) light remains challenging.
- Researchers developed a new series of polymer nanoparticles (Pdots) using ITIC and BTIC units with different π-linkers, which work effectively alone without needing to combine with other materials.
- The difluorothiophene (ThF) π-linker improves charge transfer between donor and acceptor components in the polymers, resulting in significantly enhanced hydrogen production rates of 279 µmol/h with visible light and 20.5 µmol/h with NIR light, and an apparent quantum yield of 4.76% at 700 nm.
