Controllable fabrication of nanomaterials with hierarchical architecture have received much attention in the field of photocatalysis due to their enhanced light-harvesting efficiency. Moreover, fabricating direct Z-scheme heterojunctions have been proven to be effective way to enhance the photocatalytic performance of photocatalysts . Herein, hierarchically hollow WO 3 nanoflower was successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal treatment of tungsten chloride (WCl 6 ) in ethanol solution. Decoration of the obtained WO 3 with AgI nanoparticles in situ can form the Z-scheme AgI/WO 3 hollow hierarchical nanoflowers (AgI/WO 3 HHNFs). The AgI/WO 3 HHNFs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and remarkable stability for the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) and Eosin B (EB) under the irradiation of a low energy consume light (LED lamp, 5 W). Interestingly, compared to pure AgI nanoparticles , 3D hollow WO 3 nanoflowers and AgI/WO 3 nanosheets , the AgI/WO 3 HHNFs revealed conspicuously enhanced photocatalytic activity . This phenomenon could be associated to three aspects, namely the high light-harvesting efficiency, increased light trapping and scattering capability and strongly coupled Z-scheme heterointerface, which effectively improved the photoelectron-hole sepreation efficiency. Our work therefore provide a novel insight for the fabrication of 3D hollow hierarchical structures.

Herein, a novel visible-light-driven heterojunction AgI/WO3 nanocomposite was successfully prepared using a facile two-step hydrothermal–precipitation process and applied for photodegradation of organic pollutants. The information of phase structures, morphology, optical
properties of the asprepared samples was analysed in detail by XRD, TEM, EDS, STEM, DRS measurement and so on. Formation of the heterostructure and intimate interactions between AgI and WO3 can promote highly effective photogenerated electron–hole pairs separation, which enable
the heterojuctions to perform excellent photocatalytic activity as greatly enhanced photocatalysts compared to that of pristine AgI and WO3 for decomposing Rhodamine B (RhB) dye under visible light irradiation. In addition, the AgI/WO3 (1:1) nanocomposites exhibit optimal
photocatalytic activity. Moreover, the as-prepared samples exhibit good stability, which is favorable for its potential application. Additionally, we have an analysis on a possible photocatalytic mechanism based on trapping experiments together with other experimental results.
