Self-generating CeVO4 as conductive channel within CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 to induce Z-scheme-charge-transfer driven photocatalytic degradation coupled with hydrogen production
摘要： The construction of highly efficient Z-scheme photocatalytic system is regarded as a hot research topic in the fields of environmental remediation and renewable energy production. In this work, a novel Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 photocatalyst is successfully prepared by using solid phase reaction method. The photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutant (Methylene Blue) with simultaneous hydrogen production is efficiently realized over the prepared Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 photocatalysts under visible-light irradiation. The effects of treatment temperatures and treatment times of CeO2/V2O5 composite on the photocatalytic performance of Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 photocatalyst are studied. The as-prepared Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 (550-3) photocatalyst heat-treated at 550 °C for 3.0 h exhibits the highest photocatalytic performance. It can be ascribed to a moderate amount of CeVO4 nanoparticles generated between CeO2 and V2O5. The generated CeVO4 nanoparticles can be used as effective conductive channel to transfer the photo-generated carriers. At the same time, as redox reaction centers it can further accelerate the transfer of photo-generated electrons, effectively enhancing the separation efficiency of photo-generated electron and hole pairs. Furthermore, cyclic test demonstrates that the as-prepared Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 (550-3) photocatalyst still maintains a high level of photocatalytic activity within five periods under the same conditions. Moreover, the related photocatalytic mechanism for degradation of organic pollutants with simultaneous hydrogen evolution over the Z-scheme CeO2/CeVO4/V2O5 (550-3) photocatalyst is proposed. Perhaps, this study affords a simple and novel method to design and develop next generation of highly efficient Z-scheme photocatalysts.

Low-cost effective photocatalytic activity under visible light of pitch-based porous carbon nanofiber composites aided by zinc oxide
摘要： To explore and develop an economical, novel, and effective photocatalyst for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible-light irradiation, polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/pitch-based carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with ZnO (PPZn) are successfully produced by one-step electrospinning of PAN, pitch, and zinc acetate in dimethylformamide (DMF) solution. The charge separation rate, adsorption capacity, and visible-light harvesting effects are all enhanced by the synergistic effect of PAN/pitch-based CNFs and ZnO coupling. The resulting PPZn photocatalysts exhibit excellent removal capacity of 100% of MB within 30 min and a kinetic rate constant of 0.018 min?1 under visible light. PPZn also exhibits a consistent and stable photocatalytic performance by maintaining nearly 100% removal of 15 ppm MB over 8 regeneration cycles. The PP-based CNFs in PPZn act as a charge reservoir to afford fast transport for suppressing the e?–h? recombination and high electrical conductivity induced by the pitch, thereby expanding the visible-light response. The PP(3)Zn composites demonstrate a promising potential as a low-cost photocatalyst material offering excellent photocatalytic efficiency in the visible-light spectrum.

Insight into visible light-driven photocatalytic performance of direct Z-scheme Bi2WO6/BiOI composites constructed in -situ
摘要： Bi2WO6/BiOI composites with enhanced photocatalytic performance were constructed in-situ by a hydrothermal routine. The Bi2WO6/BiOI composites were studied by Brunauer -Emmett-Teller (BET), X-ray di?raction patterns (XRD), UV–Vis di?use re?ectance spectra (DRS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS), electron spin-resonance (ESR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results support the coexistence of Bi2WO6 and BiOI in the composites. All the Bi2WO6/BiOI composites display higher separation rate of photoinduced carriers than BiOI. OH and·O2? were formed in the composite photocatalytic system. Finally, a direct Z-scheme was proposed for the Bi2WO6/BiOI composites.

Visible light photocatalytic mineralization of bisphenol A by carbon and oxygen dual-doped graphitic carbon nitride
摘要： A facile thermal polymerization was applied to synthesize carbon and oxygen dual-doped graphitic carbon nitride (MACN) with controllable electronic band structure using malonic acid and urea as precursors. The C and O atoms substituted the sp2 N atom in graphitic carbon nitride (CN). The 1MACN (1 represented that the weight ratio of malonic acid to urea is 1% during the synthesis) with optimal band structure could decompose 15 ppm bisphenol A (BPA) within 150 min, and the mineralization rate reached to 52%. The superior photocatalytic performance of 1MACN was mainly ascribed to electronic band structure together with optical properties. On the one hand, the formation of delocalized big p bonds favored the electrons transfer after the introducing of carbon atoms. On the other hand, a positive charge density existed on the C atoms because of high electronegativity of contiguous O (3.44) that substituted N compared with C (2.55), which could attribute to high activity of MACN catalyst. The study will contribute to the further improvement of visible-light photocatalytic BPA degradation and mineralization.

Improving the Visible-Light Photocatalytic Activity of Graphitic Carbon Nitride by Carbon Black Doping
摘要： Hydrogen production by water splitting and the removal of aqueous dyes by using a catalyst and solar energy are an ideal future energy source and useful for environmental protection. Graphitic carbon nitride can be used as the photocatalyst with visible light irradiation. However, it typically suffers from the high recombination of carriers and low electrical conductivity. Here, we have developed a facile mix-thermal strategy to prepare carbon black-modified graphitic carbon nitrides, which possess high electrical conductivity, a wide adsorption range of visible light, and a low recombination rate of carriers. With the help of carbon black, highly crystallized graphitic carbon nitrides with built-in triazine and heptazine heterojunctions are obtained. Improved photocatalytic activities have been achieved in carbon black-modified graphitic carbon nitride. The dye removal rate can be three times faster than that of pristine graphitic carbon nitride and the photocatalytic H2 generation is 234 μmol h?1 g?1 under visible light irradiation.

A genetically encoded photosensitizer protein facilitates the rational design of a miniature photocatalytic CO2-reducing enzyme
摘要： Photosensitizers, which harness light energy to upgrade weak reductants to strong reductants, are pivotal components of the natural and artificial photosynthesis machineries. However, it has proved difficult to enhance and expand their functions through genetic engineering. Here we report a genetically encoded, 27 kDa photosensitizer protein (PSP), which facilitates the rational design of miniature photocatalytic CO2-reducing enzymes. Visible light drives PSP efficiently into a long-lived triplet excited state (PSP*), which reacts rapidly with reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to generate a super-reducing radical (PSP?), which is strong enough to reduce many CO2-reducing catalysts. We determined the three-dimensional structure of PSP? at 1.8 ? resolution by X-ray crystallography. Genetic engineering enabled the site-specific attachment of a nickel–terpyridine complex and the modular optimization of the photochemical properties of PSP, the chromophore/catalytic centre distance and the catalytic centre microenvironment, which culminated in a miniature photocatalytic CO2-reducing enzyme that has a CO2/CO conversion quantum efficiency of 2.6%.

In situ fluorine doped ZrO2?x nanotubes for efficient visible light photocatalytic activity
摘要： The F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes are synthesized by anodic oxidization in a F-containing electrolyte and following a low temperature annealing process. The F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes exhibit a dramatic increase in visible light absorption and efficient visible light photocatalytic activity which are not possessed to normalized ZrO2. The fluorine in anodic ZrO2 nanotubes plays a vital role in the formation of abundant anion vacancies during the annealing. Combining the doping effect of the residual fluorine element, the band gap of the F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes reduced from 5.13 to 2.35 eV. Moreover, the transient photocurrent response plots and the photocatalytic experiments reveal the highly effective electrons–holes separation of the F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes and enhanced visible-light photocatalytic degradation for RhB. The degradation rate of RhB in the presence of the F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes catalyst has reached up to 83% under 2 h low-power LED light irradiation. In addition, the possible photocatalytic mechanism of the F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes has been proposed via studying the band structure. It is believed that the F-doped ZrO2?x nanotubes will have a bright future for sustainable energy sources and cleaning environment.

Functionalization of cotton fabric with bismuth oxyiodide nanosheets: applications for photodegrading organic pollutants, UV shielding and self-cleaning
摘要： A multifunctional cotton fabric was prepared by immobilizing bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) nanosheets on the surface of cotton treated to briefly dissolve surface molecules with upon the low-temperature addition of NaOH and urea (cotton micro-dissolution). Immobilization was accomplished by successive adsorption and reaction (SILAR) at the temperature (* 25 °C). The morphology, structural characteristics, photodegradation ability for organic pollutants, UV shielding, and self-cleaning of the treated fabric were studied. The growth rate and uniformity of the BiOI nanosheets were compared between the treated fabrics and the untreated fabrics. The absorption wavelength of the cotton fabric with BiOI nanosheets was extended to the visible light (* 630 nm) region. Under visible light irradiation, cotton fabric containing BiOI nanosheets (BiOI > 8.4 wt%) showed remarkable photocatalytic ability for degrading rhodamine B (RhB) with a degradation rate of 99% (C0 = 20 mg/L) and 95% after the first and sixth cycle, respectively. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of cotton fabric with BiOI nanosheets was > 50, and its transmittance of ultraviolet A (T(UVA)) was < 5%. The cotton fabric with BiOI nanosheets also exhibited superhydrophobic and self-cleaning properties. Thus, the cotton fabric with BiOI nanosheets has great potential for application as a multifunctional protective material.

Facile synthesis of molybdenum multisulfide composite nanorod arrays from single-source precursor for photoelectrochemical hydrogen generation
摘要： The deposition of molybdenum multisulfide thin-film photoanodes from the metal–organic precursor [CpMo(SMe)2]2 (1), at different deposition time has been investigated. Four different films were deposited at 550 °C under constant argon gas flow for 10, 15, 20, and 25 min, respectively. The surface morphology of these films analyzed with FE-SEM and AFM showed the presence of compact 1D rod-like structure of MoS2/Mo2S3 in a homogeneous form. The average diameter of the 1D compact MoS2/Mo2S3 composite nanorod arrays was found in the range of 155–298 nm deposited for different time durations. EDX analysis showed a consistency where the Mo-to-S ratio was approximately 3:4.5 and demonstrated the overall composition of the 1D MoS2/Mo2S3 composite nanorod arrays. The XRD analysis of the thin film indicated the presence of monoclinic Mo2S3 and rhombohedral MoS2 composite system. Moreover, the photocurrent density of 20 min deposited thin film is observed to be 4 mA/cm2 with highest photosensitivity of 6.78 at the overpotential of 0.3 V vs Ag/AgCl under the simulated light intensity of 100 mW/cm2 (AM 1.5G). The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) also showed improved charge transportation with highest lifetime of the photoexcited charges in 20 min deposited thin film in comparison to the other deposition time durations. This study provides the optimized synthesis conditions for producing molybdenum-based multisulfide nanostructures and the deposition duration for their deployment in solar-based devices.

Lignite-derived carbon quantum dot/TiO <sub/>2</sub> heterostructure nanocomposites: photoinduced charge transfer properties and enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity
摘要： Here, we present a facile and green route to cleanly and efficiently utilize low-rank lignite to produce in high yields and in situ synthesize CQDs/TiO2 heterostructure nanocomposites. Unlike other CQDs, the lignite-derived CQDs exhibit obvious concentration-dependent red-shifted absorption, unusual aggregation-induced different color emissions and strong orange-red solid-state fluorescence. Through the optimization of the CQD loading proportion, the 2 wt% CQDs/TiO2 shows the optimal photocatalytic performance under visible light. We highlight the CQDs/TiO2 heterostructure nanocomposites by focusing on their dynamic photoinduced charge transfer properties triggered by the heterostructure interface and their application as a photocatalyst under visible light. Our detailed work about the transfer behavior of photoinduced charges in coal-derived carbon quantum dot/TiO2 heterostructure nanocomposites may shed light on the intrinsic reasons for CQD/semiconductor enhanced photocatalytic activity.
