Gold-palladium alloy nanoparticles decorated on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (Au-Pd/N-CNT) were prepared by using polyethylene imine reduction method. Polyethylene acts as not only a stabilizing agent, but also a reducing agent, leading to nucleation and growth of nanoparticles on the N-CNT surfaces. All the N-CNT-based nanofluids show broadband absorption across the visible region and near infrared region. The Au-Pd/N-CNT nanofluids absorb more solar irradiation compared with monometallic Pd/N-CNT or Au/N-CNT nanofluid. The photo-thermal conversion efficiency of Au-Pd /N-CNT nanofluids is 62.3%, compared with 53.3% and 57% for Pd/N-CNT and Au/N-CNT, respectively. This enhancement was mainly due to the synergetic effects of N-CNT and Au-Pd alloy nanoparticles.

In this review, we discuss the use of doped carbon nanomaterials in catalysis, a subject that is currently intensively studied. The availability of carbon nanotubes since the 1990’s and of graphene ten years later prompted the development of novel nanotechnologies. We review this topic linking fundamental surface science to the field of catalysis giving a timely picture of the state of the art. The main scientific questions that material scientists have addressed in the last decades are described, in particular the enduring debate on the role of the different nitrogen functionalities in the catalytic activity of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes and graphene.
