Disclosed is a visible light responsive photocatalytic member having a substrate covered with photocatalyst particles which are capable of generating hydrogen, wherein the said particles are made so as to be compatible in both high crystallinity and refining of the primary particles thereof. The photocatalytic member of the present invention is the visible light responsive photocatalytic member having the primary particle diameter thereof of 100 nm or less, wherein a photocatalytic layer containing the photocatalyst particles, which are capable of generating hydrogen, is immobilized on the substrate. More preferably, the said material has pores with the size of 10 to 200 nm inclusive among the photocatalyst particles. With this, water decomposition with a high photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation can be realized. |
