In this work, Ta-doped ZnO (Ta-ZnO) nanomaterials were synthesized by the hydrothermal method at different temperatures (110, 150, and 170 °C) for photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light. Ta doping significantly affects crystal defects, optical properties, MB photocatalytic efficiency materials. The absorption edge Ta-ZnO 150 was redshifted compared to undoped ZnO, correlating bandgap narrowing (EgTa-ZnO = 2.92 eV; EgZnO 3.07 eV), implying that doped is capable absorbing...
