研究目的
To enhance the visible light photocatalytic activity of TiO2 by coupling with NaYF4:(Yb,Er) and CuO nanoparticles.
研究成果
The NaYF4:(Yb,Er)-CuO/TiO2 composite exhibited enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity and some recyclability, making it potentially useful in photocatalyst systems.
研究不足
The recyclability of the NaYF4:(Yb,Er)-CuO/TiO2 composite decreased after each cycle, possibly due to Cu leaching and loss of TiO2 nanoparticles during washing steps.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the synthesis of NaYF4:(Yb,Er) phosphor by solution combustion, preparation of CuO nanoparticles, and their coupling with NaYF4:(Yb,Er) by mechanical ball-milling followed by TiO2-sol coating.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The samples were characterized using XRD, SEM, EDS, particle size analyzer, BET method, PL spectra, and UV-vis spectrophotometry.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Muffle furnace, magnetic stirrer, ball mill, electric oven, XRD, SEM, EDS, particle size analyzer, BET analyzer, fluorescence spectrophotometer, UV-vis spectrophotometer.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The synthesis involved combustion, precipitation, ball-milling, coating, drying, and calcination. Photocatalytic activity was examined under visible light irradiation.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The photocatalytic degradation efficiency was analyzed using UV-vis absorbance measurements.
