Abstract
We demonstrate a facile and general
approach for the fabrication
of highly dispersed Au, Pd, and Pt nanoparticles (NPs) on MIL-125(Ti)
without using extra reducing and capping agents. Noble-metal NP formation
is directed by an in situ redox reaction between the reductive MIL-125(Ti)
with Ti<sup>3+</sup> and oxidative metal salt precursors. The resulting
composites function as efficient photocatalysts
