Abstract: The n-p coupled semiconductor material 0.5%Cu/ZnO-1.5%NiO was prepared by using sol-gel method, over which the photo stimulated surface-catalytic reaction(PSSR) of synthesis of CH3OH from CO2 and H2O was studied. XRD, TEM, IR, UV-Vis and TPD experiments were adopted for characterizing the structure, photon absorbing and chemisorbing ability of the material. It was revealed that, during PSSR over the prepared material, CH3OH, CH4 and CO can be secured at a normal temperature. The influence of temperature on PSSR was discussed, based on which shearing and horizontal chemisorption states of CO2 were ascertained to be the surface precursors of CH4 and CH3OH, respectively. Finally the PSSR mechanism was presented.
