چکیده

In this study, we report the facile fabrication of Fe(2)O(3)/CQDs nanocomposites, and investigate their effective photocatalytic activity for the photodegradation of toxic gas (gas-phase benzene and methanol) under visible light. The crucial roles of CQDs in the enhancement of photocatalytic activity of the Fe(2)O(3)/CQDs composites are illustrated.

Controlled fabrication and photocatalytic properties of a three-dimensional ZnO nanowire/reduced graphene oxide/CdS heterostructure on carbon cloth.

A novel ZnO/reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/CdS heterostructure was successfully synthesized via a facile three-step solution method. RGO serves as an interlayer between ZnO nanowires and CdS quantum dots (QDs), which provides a high speed charge transfer channel, leading to an enhanced charge separation efficiency. Under UV light irradiation, the photocatalytic activity of the ZnO/RGO/CdS heteros...

Fabrication of Magnetically Recoverable Nanocomposites by Combination of Fe3O4/ZnO with AgI and Ag2CO3: Substantially Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity under Visible Light

We report highly efficient magnetically recoverable photocatalysts through combination of Fe3O4/ZnO with AgI and Ag2CO3, as narrow band gap semiconductors. The resultant photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, EDX, SEM. TEM, UV–vis DRS, FT-IR, PL, and VSM instruments. Under visible-light illumination, the nanocomposite with 1:6 weight ratio of Fe3O4 to ZnO/AgI/Ag2CO3 exhibited superior activi...

The synergistic role of carbon quantum dots for the improved photocatalytic performance of Bi2MoO6.

Novel carbon quantum dot (CQD) modified Bi2MoO6 photocatalysts were prepared via a facile hydrothermal process. The CQD modified Bi2MoO6 materials were characterized by multiple techniques. The CQDs with the average size of about 7 nm were distributed on the surface of Bi2MoO6 nanosheets. The photocatalytic activity of as-prepared CQD modified Bi2MoO6 materials was investigated sufficiently by ...

A visible-light-driven composite photocatalyst of TiO2 nanotube arrays and graphene quantum dots

TiO2 nanotube arrays are well-known efficient UV-driven photocatalysts. The incorporation of graphene quantum dots could extend the photo-response of the nanotubes to the visible-light range. Graphene quantum dot-sensitized TiO2 nanotube arrays were synthesized by covalently coupling these two materials. The product was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), scanning e...
