Among CdS, Rh/CdS, Rh2S3/CdS, and Rh2S,/Rh/CdS, the ternary material, viz., Rh2S3/Rh/CdS, is found to be the most active photocatalyst for the decomposition of aqueous sulfide. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies show that Rh as it is photodeposited on CdS is in the zero oxidation state but is prone to aerial oxidation. © 1990, American Chemical Society.

The in situ deposition of Pt and Ir on CdS during the photocatalytic decomposition of aqueous sulfide results in the formation of an effective bifunctional photocatalyst (MS/CdS/M, where MS is Pt or Ir sulfide and M is Pt or Ir) which is more active than CdS and metallized CdS. In situ metallization provides a convenient method for the preparation of metal- and metal-sulfide-deposited CdS. The order of reactivity for the in situ metallization of CdS in the case of the photocatalytic decomposition of aqueous sulfide is Rh > Pt > Ru = Ir > Co ≃ Ni ≃ Fe. Based on the observed results a mechanism for the photocatalytic decomposition of aqueous sulfide is proposed. © 1995.
