AB  - Immobilized TiO2 nanotube arrays (NTAs) co-modified with Pt and CdS nanoparticles 
      were fabricated by using the combination of photoreduction and chemical bath 
      deposition methods. XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, UV-Vis and EDX methods were employed to 
      characterize the microstructure and composition of samples, and the results 
      showed that CdS and Pt NPs were uniformly deposited on the surface of TiO2 
      nanotubes. The CdS/Pt/TiO2 NTAs exhibited a much higher photocatalytic activity 
      compared to pure TiO2 NTAs and binary CdS (or Pt)/TiO2 NTAs under visible light 
      irradiation. A kinetic study showed that the rate constants of Pt/TiO2, CdS/TiO2 
      and CdS/Pt/TiO2 NTAs are 0.00736, 0.01717 and 0.02077 min(-1), respectively, 
      revealing a remarkable kinetic enhancement in the ternary heteronanostructures 
      due to the synergistic effect of the three components. Besides, the CdS/Pt/TiO2 
      NTAs exhibit high stability after being used 22 times. Thus we proposed that such 
      ternary heteronanostructures show great promise as immobilized catalysts for high 
      efficient visible-light-driven photocatalysis.
