Visible Light-Assisted Photocatalysis Using Spherical-Shaped BiVO4 Photocatalyst

Reduced graphene oxide and Ag wrapped TiO2 photocatalyst for enhanced visible light photocatalysis

A dye-sensitized visible light photocatalyst-Bi24O31Cl10

The p-block semiconductors are regarded as a new family of visible-light photocatalysts because of their dispersive and anisotropic band structures as well as high chemical stability. The bismuth oxide halides belong to this family and have band structures and dispersion relations that can be engineered by modulating the stoichiometry of the halogen elements. Herein, we have developed a new vis...

Visible light-driven CdSe nanotube array photocatalyst

Large-scale CdSe nanotube arrays on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass have been synthesized using ZnO nanorod template. The strong visible light absorption in CdSe, its excellent photoresponse, and the large surface area associated with the tubular morphology lead to good visible light-driven photocatalytic capability of these nanotube arrays. Compared to freestanding nanoparticles, such one-piece n...

Solar synthesis: prospects in visible light photocatalysis.

Chemists have long aspired to synthesize molecules the way that plants do-using sunlight to facilitate the construction of complex molecular architectures. Nevertheless, the use of visible light in photochemical synthesis is fundamentally challenging because organic molecules tend not to interact with the wavelengths of visible light that are most strongly emitted in the solar spectrum. Recent ...

Visible-light Photocatalyst - Nitrogen-doped Titanium Dioxide -

A new photocatalyst, known as nitrogen-doped TiO2 (TiO2-xNx), yielding high reactivity under visible light irradiation, together with high potential for mass-productivity, has been developed by using a highly time-efficient development technique that combines computational materials design with experimental syntheses. Under visible light irradiation, TiO2-xNx films and powders exhibit significa...
