Reinforcing the carrier separation is key issue to maximize photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) efficiency of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3 N4 ). By a surface engineering gradual doping graphited rings within g-C3 , suitable energy band structures and built-in electric fields are established. Photoinduced electrons holes impelled into diverse directions, leading 21-fold improvement in PHE rate.
Under visible light irradiation, excited electrons in heterojunction structure of Bi/BiOCl were transferred into oxygen vacancies states, and then to the Bi metal nanoparticles, resulting effective separation electron–hole pairs. The photocatalyst exhibited an extraordinary high activity photodegradation RhB dye persistent organic pollutants, i.e. was completely degraded 2 minutes.
Photocatalysis, which converts natural solar energy into chemical energy, has emerged as one of the most appealing technologies in past decades. However, photocatalytic performances are limited by poor absorption visible light, charge‐carrier recombination during migration, and a high barrier for activating reactants. Oxygen vacancies semiconductive metal oxides reported to be vital improve their efficiency. In this regard, review provides concise overview oxygen transition systems,...
