The unique p-n type heterostructure not only promotes the separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers significantly, but also offers more active sites for photocatalytic hydrogen production. A photocatalytic mechanism is proposed based on the results of electrochemical measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.展开更多

文摘Constructing a suitable heterojunction photocatalytic system from two photocatalytic materials is an efficient approach for designing extremely efficient photocatalysts for a broader range of environmental,medical,and energy applications.Recently,the construction of a step-scheme heterostructure system(hereafter called the S-scheme)has received widespread attention in the photocatalytic field due to its ability to achieve efficient photogenerated carrier separation and obtain strong photo-redox ability.Herein,a novel S-scheme heterojunction system consisting of 2D O-doped g-C_(3)N_(4)(OCN)nanosheets and 3D N-doped Nb_(2)O_(5)/C(N-NBO/C)nanoflowers is constructed via ultrasonication and vigorous agitation technique followed by heat treatment for the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B(RhB).Detailed characterization and decomposition behaviour of RhB showed that the fabricated material shows excellent photocatalytic efficiency and stability towards RhB photodegradation under visible-light illumination.The enhanced performance could be attributed to the following factors:fast charge transfer,highly-efficient charge separation,extended lifetime of photoinduced charge carriers,and the high redox capability of the photoinduced charges in the S-scheme system.Various trapping experiment conditions and electron paramagnetic resonance provide clear evidence of the S-scheme photogenerated charge transfer path,meanwhile,the RhB mineralization degradation pathway was also investigated using LC-MS.This study presents an approach to constructing Nb_(2)O_(5)-based S-scheme heterojunctions for photocatalytic applications.

文摘TiO2@Ni(OH)2 core-shell microspheres were synthesized by a facile strategy to obtain a perfect 3D flower-like nanostructure with well-arranged Ni(OH)2 nanoflakes on the surfaces of TiO2 microspheres;this arrangement led to a six-fold enhancement in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The unique p-n type heterostructure not only promotes the separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers significantly, but also offers more active sites for photocatalytic hydrogen production. A photocatalytic mechanism is proposed based on the results of electrochemical measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

文摘Photocatalytic method has been intensively explored for Cr(VI)reduction owing to its efficient and environmentally friendly natures.In order to obtain a high efficiency in practical application,efficient photocatalysts need to be developed.Here,ZnIn2S4/SnS2 with a three-dimensional(3D)heterostructure was prepared by a hydrothermal method and its photocatalytic performance in Cr(VI)reduction was investigated.When the mass ratio of SnS2 to ZnIn2S4 is 1:10,the ZnIn2S4/SnS2 composite exhibits the highest photocatalytic activity with 100%efficiency for Cr(VI)(50 mg/L)reduction within 70 min under visible-light irradiation,which is much higher than those of pure ZnIn2S4 and SnS2.The enhanced charge separation and the light absorption have been confirmed from the photoluminescence and UV-vis absorption spectra to be the two reasons for the increased activity towards photocatalytic Cr(VI)reduction.In addition,after three cycles of testing,no obvious degradation is observed with the 3D heterostructured ZnIn2S4/SnS2,which maintains a good photocatalytic stability.

文摘Black phosphorus(BP),an interesting and multi-functional non-metal material,has attracted widespread attention.In this work,2D BP/2D g-C3N4 heterostructure had been fabricated at extremely low temperature,which was used to reduce CO2 for the first time.With introduction of 2D BP,the separation of photogenerated holes and electrons was extremely boosted,and composites showed excellent photocatalytic performance(CO2 to CO).Meanwhile,the targeted composite could keep high selectivity for CO generation and CO generation rate can be up to 187.7μmol g−1 h^−1.The formation process of the unique heterostructure and the key factor affecting the photocatalytic performance were also discussed.This work provides a new approach for designing metal free photocatalyst,which is used for CO2 reduction.

文摘Up to this date,researchers are still facing difficulties to expand the technology of direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs) because of the high overpotential required to oxidize the methanol and its relatively poor performance due to CO poisoning of the leading-high cost anode catalyst.In line with this,we have successfully modified the morphological structure and composition of low cost cobalt based-metal oxides,MCo_2O_4(M = Zn and Ni),with the simple and noble use of polyvinyl pyrrolidone(PVP) as growth modifier and surface stabilizer during the synthesis of nanoparticles in our previous reports,which shown high electrocatalytic activity and strong stability.Due to the good performance of our PVP modified MCo_2O_4 towards pseudocapacitor and oxygen evolution reaction applications,we decided to extend our research study to methanol oxidation reaction.Remarkably,PVP modified Ni Co_2O_4 electrode directly grown on nickel foam substrate via a simple hydrothermal process exhibited better performance compared with PVP modified ZnCo_2O_4 and NiCo_2O_4 without PVP.It had obtained a remarkably low onset potential of 0.285 V and high current density of 280 m A cm^(-2),and shown great stability and high poison tolerance during a continuous CV cycling and Chronoamperometry test,which attained high efficiency of 86.86%and 98.52%,respectively.These positive results of PVP modified Ni Co_2O_4 electrode towards MOR might be attributed to its hierarchical 3 D nanostructures with highly mesoporous surface and large surface area which may have provided numerous electroactive sites,and the exceptional corrosion stability of Ni Co_2O_4 electrode in alkaline solution.
