Persistent deNOx Ability of CaAl2O4:(Eu, Nd)/TiO2-xNy Luminescent Photocatalyst
نویسندگان
چکیده
CaAl2O4:(Eu, Nd)/TiO2-xNy composite luminescent photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by a simple planetary ball milling process. Improvement of photocatalytic deNOx ability of TiO2-xNy, together with the persistent photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of NO after turning off the light were realized, by coupling TiO2-xNy with long afterglow phosphor, CaAl2O4:(Eu, Nd). The novel persistent photocatalytic behavior was related to the overlap between the absorption wavelength of TiO2-xNy and the emission wavelength of the CaAl2O4:(Eu, Nd). It was found that CaAl2O4:(Eu, Nd)/TiO2-xNy composites provided the luminescence to persist photocatalytic reaction for more than 3 h after turning off the light.

Mechanistic Study of the Persistent Luminescence of CaAl2O4:Eu,Nd
CaAl2O4:Eu is a persistent luminescence (PL) material in the blue light region with potentially wide commercial applications. With the doping of Nd, the decay time can be elongated to more than 19 h. These excellent properties are believed to be in close relation with the electronic structures of the dopants, the defects, and the host material. In this work, we attempt to achieve a better under...

TiO2/Magnetit and TiO2/Nd/Magnetit were prepared and used for photocatalytic decomposition of the methylorange as a pollutant. TiO2 and TiO2/Nd were prepared by sol gel method and were characterized using XRD, FT IR and TEM. The prepared catalysts were deposited on magnetite surface to have a catalyst with magnetite core. So the catalyst can be separated easily from the waste solution by a magn...

Pt/TiO2-xNy film has been synthesized successfully through the sol-gel method and spin coating method. The roughness and absorption wavelength were analyzed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometer(UV-vis). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) showed that the elements contain Pt, N, Ti and O. Moreover, the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue demon...
متن کاملLuminescent Afterglow Behavior in the M2Si5N8: Eu Family (M = Ca, Sr, Ba)
Persistent luminescent materials are able to emit light for hours after being excited. The majority of persistent phosphors emit in the blue or green region of the visible spectrum. Orange- or red-emitting phosphors, strongly desired for emergency signage and medical imaging, are scarce. We prepared the nitrido-silicates Ca₂Si₅N₈:Eu (orange), Sr₂Si₅N₈:Eu (reddish), Ba₂Si₅N₈:Eu (yellowish orange...
