ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle: Synthesis and photocatalytic activity under UV-vis and visible light
Authors
Abstract:
In the present work, the ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle has been successfully synthesized. The obtained sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and its optical property was examined by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. FE-SEM revealed that the particle size of the ZnFe2O4 of about 47 nm was synthesized. The photocatalytic performance under UV-Vis and visible light were evaluated by decolorization of congo red (CR) anionic dye solution. The UV-Vis and visible light irradiation source are a high pressure mercury lamp, 400 W and filament tungsten lamp 100 W respectively. The photocatalytic results show that the ZnFe2O4 sample can be 100% degrading (CR) dye solution after 30 and 120 min under UV-Vis and visible irradiation respectively

full textExceptional visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity over BiOBr-ZnFe2O4 heterojunctions.
An ultrasound-assisted, precipitation-deposition method has been developed to synthesise visible-light-responsive BiOBr-ZnFe(2)O(4) heterojunction photocatalysts. The heterojunctions with suitable BiOBr/ZnFe(2)O(4) ratios have a fascinating micro-spherical morphology and exhibit exceptional photocatalytic activity in visible-light degradation of Rhodamine B.

Hybrid photocatalysts consisting of single crystalline BiFeO3 nanowires and laser ablated Au nanoparticles were synthesized by a functionalization-step-free solution process. The 1.0 wt% Au nanoparticle decorated BiFeO3 nanowires exhibit ~30 times higher photocatalytic activity for water oxidation than that exhibited by the parent wires during the first 4 h.

In this project, mesoporous titanium oxide-silicon oxide doped by silver (TiO2-SiO2-Ag) was hydrothermally synthesized. Titanium isopropoxide, tetraethyl orthosilicate and silver nitrate were used as precursors for TiO2, SiO2 and Ag, respectively. Initially TiO2-SiO2 mesoporous nanocomposite was synthesized with weight ratios of silica to titania SiO2:TiO2:3:1 via hydrothermal method at 70˚C an...
