Abstract

Abstract In this work we investigated the tartrazine photodegradation by modified and unmodified silicon nanowires (SiNWs). SiNWs were elaborated by one-step metal-assisted electroless chemical etching of silicon substrate in HF/AgNO 3 aqueous solution. The modification of SiNWs was carried out by nanoparticles of platinum, palladium, silver, gold and copper in chemical solutions of PtO 2 , PdCl 2 , AgNO 3 , AuCl 3 and CuSO 4 , respectively. The results show that Cu-modified silicon nanowires give the highest photocatalytic activity compared to the unmodified SiNWs and SiNWs modified with nanoparticles of Au, Pt, Pd and Ag.
