摘要
The development of low cost, metal free semiconductor photocatalysts for CO2 reduction to fuels and valuable chemical feedstocks is a practically imperative for reducing anthropogenic CO2 emissions. In this work, black phosphorus quantum dots(BPQDs) were successfully dispersed on a graphitic carbon nitride(g-C3N4) support via a simple electrostatic attraction approach, and the activities of BP@g-C3N4 composites were evaluated for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. The BP@g-C3N4 composites displayed improved carrier separation efficiency and higher activities for photocatalytic CO2 reduction to CO(6.54 μmol g^-1h^-1 at the optimum BPQDs loading of 1 wt%) compared with pure g-C3N4(2.65 μmol g^-1h^-1). This work thus identifies a novel approach towards metal free photocatalysts for CO2 photoreduction.
开发还原二氧化碳生成燃料和有价值化学品的低成本、非金属半导体光催化剂,是减少二氧化碳浓度的一种有效方案.本工作通过简单的静电吸附方法成功地将黑磷量子点(BPQDs)分散在石墨相氮化碳(g-C_3N_4)载体上,成功制备了BP@g-C_3N_4复合材料,并对其在紫外-可见光激发下光催化还原CO_2的性能进行了研究.电化学表征,瞬态吸收光谱和荧光光谱数据表明BPQDs的负载提高了g-C_3N_4的载流子分离效率.在氙灯的照射下,与g-C_3N_4(CO的生成速率为2.1μmol g^(-1)h^(-1))相比,BP@g-C_3N_4复合材料光催化还原CO_2活性显著提高(当BPQDs的负载量为1 wt%时,CO的生成速率为6.54μmol g^(-1)h^(-1)).本工作发展了一种新型的可还原CO_2的非金属基光催化剂.
