Preparation of hollow yttrium-doped TiO<sub>2</sub> microspheres with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity
摘要: Using melamine-formaldehyde polymer microspheres as templates, yttrium-doped TiO2 hollow spheres (Y-TiO2HS) were successfully prepared via a sol-gel method. The as-synthesized samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum, luminescence spectrum, specific surface area (BET) analysis and porosity analysis. The results indicate that Y doping could increase the thermal stability, reduce the band gap and enhance photocatalytic activity of the TiO2. When the Y doping molar ratio was 1.5%, the Y-TiO2HS presented high surface area (62.651 m2 /g) and photocatalytic degradation rate (about 70%). The corresponding BET value and photocatalytic degradation rate of Y-TiO2HS increased by 3 times and 50%, respectively, compared with those of un-doped TiO2HS.

Sensitization of TiO <sub/>2</sub> by the symmetric cationic polymethine dye for the photocatalytic reduction of methylene blue
摘要: Using the spectral, electrochemical and energy transformation characteristics of the cationic polymethine dye (D) 2-[(1E)-1,3-butadienyl-]-1-(phenylmethyl)-benindolium borfluoride, it has been found that the dye can be applied as a highly efficient sensitizer of TiO2. An intensity of the initially narrow light adsorption band becomes wider and embraces practically entire visible and near IR zones as a result of application of the dye to the surface of TiO2. Due to this effect, a wider array of light quanta can potentially be involved in the photocatalytic transformations. Some new heterostructures (HS) of the type D/TiO2 have been developed and their photocatalytic activities were determined in the test reaction of reduction of methylene blue by formaldehyde for different dye contents and under various modes of irradiation. The schemes of the energy transformation initiated by the light with different wavelengths are proposed and discussed.

Photocatalytic Activity of Monosized AuZnO Composite Nanoparticles
摘要: Photocatalytic activity of monosized AuZnO composite nanoparticles with different compositions were synthesized by the one-pot polyol procedure, using the triblock copolymer poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-blockpoly(ethylene glycol) (PEO-PPO-PEO) as the surfactant. The structure and morphology of the composite nanoparticles were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The characterization showed that the AuZnO composite nanoparticles were spherical, with narrow particle size distribution and high crystallinity. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) study con?rms the PEO-PPO-PEO molecules on the surface of the composite nanoparticles. The investigations by ultraviolet-visible light absorbance spectrometer (UV-Vis) and photoluminescence spectrophotometer (PL) demonstrate well the dispersibility and excellent optical performance of the AuZnO composite nanoparticles. Photocatalytic activity and reusability of the AuZnO nanoparticles in UV and visible light regions was evaluated by the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). The experimental results show that the AuZnO composite nanoparticles with a suitable amount of Au loading have stability and improved photocatalytic activity. AuZnO composite nanoparticles are effective and stable for the degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous solution.

ZnO Tetrapods for Potential Photocatalytic Dye Degradation
摘要: In this study, a facile method was used to prepare ZnO tetrapods for potential dye degradation applications. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and UV-Vis spectroscopy were employed to investigate the morphology, chemical composition, and photocatalytic properties of prepared ZnO tetrapods. A Rhodamine B (RB) dye was used as a model dye to study the photocatalytic activity of the prepared sample. It was shown that RB dye can be efficiently degraded in the presence of ZnO tetrapods under continuous UV-light illumination. Thus, prepared ZnO tetrapods with excellent photocatalytic properties can be potentially used in wastewater treatment.

Photocatalytic Degradation of Estriol Using Iron-Doped TiO2 under High and Low UV Irradiation
摘要: Iron-doped TiO2 nanoparticles (Fe-TiO2) were synthesized and photocatalitically investigated under high and low ?uence values of UV radiation. The Fe-TiO2 physical characterization was performed using X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analysis, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Diffuse Re?ectance Spectroscopy (DRS), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The XPS evidenced that the ferric ion (Fe3+) was in the TiO2 lattice and unintentionally added co-dopants were also present because of the precursors of the synthetic method. The Fe3+ concentration played a key role in the photocatalytic generation of hydroxyl radicals (?OH) and estriol (E3) degradation. Fe-TiO2 accomplished E3 degradation, and it was found that the catalyst with 0.3 at.% content of Fe (0.3 Fe-TiO2) enhanced the photocatalytic activity under low UV irradiation compared with TiO2 without intentionally added Fe (zero-iron TiO2) and Aeroxide? TiO2 P25. Furthermore, the enhanced photocatalytic activity of 0.3 Fe-TiO2 under low UV irradiation may have applications when radiation intensity must be controlled, as in medical applications, or when strong UV absorbing species are present in water.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity of Titania by Co-Doping with Mo and W
摘要: Various W and Mo co-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) materials were obtained through the EISA (Evaporation-Induced Self-Assembly) method and then tested as photocatalysts in the degradation of 4-chlorophenol. The synthesized materials were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy (RS), N2 physisorption, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the W-Mo-TiO2 catalysts have a high surface area of about 191 m2/g, and the presence of an anatase crystalline phase. The co-doped materials exhibited smaller crystallite sizes than those with one dopant, since the crystallinity is inhibited by the presence of both species. In addition, tungsten and molybdenum dopants are distributed and are incorporated into the anatase structure of TiO2, due to changes in red parameters and lattice expansion. Under our experimental conditions, the co-doped TiO2 catalyst presented 46% more 4-chlorophenol degradation than Degussa P25. The incorporation of two dopant cations in titania improved its photocatalytic performance, which was attributed to a cooperative effect by decreasing the recombination of photogenerated charges, high radiation absorption capacity, high surface areas, and low crystallinity. When TiO2 is co-doped with the same amount of both cations (1 wt.%), the highest degradation and mineralization (97% and 74%, respectively) is achieved. Quinones were the main intermediates in the 4-chlorophenol oxidation by W-Mo-TiO2 and 1,2,4-benzenetriol was incompletely degraded.

Theory-Driven Heterojunction Photocatalyst Design with Continuously Adjustable Band Gap Materials
摘要: The utilization efficiency of hot carriers in photocatalyst is limited at present by their fast recombination. Heterojunction interface would reduce the recombination rate by effectively facilitating spatial separation of the hot electron and hole. Here, we establish a heterojunction photocatalyst design principle by using continuously adjustable band gap materials. This is demonstrated using first-principles calculations, and is subsequently validated by direct measurements of photocatalytic activity of ZnxCd1-xS-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) heterojunction as a proof-of-concept photocatalyst. Tuning the Zn/Cd ratio and/or the reduction degree of RGO can result into three types of heterojunction, and different conduction and valence band offsets by varying their band gap and positions of band edges. The modulation of efficient electron-hole separation at the interface is manifested by the consistency of calculated and experimental optical absorbance, and enhanced photocatalytical activity of ZnxCd1-xS-RGO heterojunction. This results can also rationalize the available experimental results of RGO-based composites. This design principle is broadly applicable to the development of other heterojunction materials ranging from photocatalysts and solar cells to functional electronic devices through interfacial band alignment engineering.
