Ultra‐Efficient Photocatalytic Properties in Porous Tungsten Oxide/Graphene Film under Visible Light Irradiation

چکیده
Recently, a growing amount of effort has been devoted to solving the widespread problem of pollution. Photocatalysts have attracted increasing attention for their widespread environmental applications. Here, a classic and simple electrospun technique is used to directly fabricate a porous a tungsten oxide nanoframework with graphene film as a photocatalyst for degradation of pollutants. The as-synthesized film simultaneously possesses substantial adsorptivity of aromatic molecules, extensive light absorption range, significant light trapping, and efficient charge carrier separation properties, which remarkably enhance photocatalytic activity. In the photodegradation of Rhodamine B, a significant photocatalytic enhancement in the reaction rate is observed, which has superior photocatalytic activity compared to other bare WO3 and TiO2 nanomaterials under visible-light irradiation.

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...
