In this study, the films were successfully prepared from Bi2MoO6 and g-C3N4/Bi2MoO6 by a simple method, respectively. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FTIR）, photoluminescence（PL）, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy（DRS） and electrochemical experiments to investigate crystalline structure, morphology, composition and properties. The photocatalytic activity of the photocatalyst films for the pollutants was evaluated by degradation of methylene blue（MB） in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. Experiments revealed that the film of g-C3Na/Bi2MoO6 exhibited higher photocatalytic ability compared to the single-component photocatalyst, and proved its stability. The superior catalytic performance can be attributed to the effective separation of electron-hole pairs and the reduced rate of recombination. This work is of great value for the preparation of photocatalysts films.展开更多
