The development of highly efficient strategy to facilitate comprehensive charge transmission and effective spatial charge separation is expected as a promising approach to improve photocatalytic performance. Herein, the Fe(III) doping modified AgI/NH 2 -MIL-68(In/Fe) Z-scheme heterojunction (ANM-x composite) with unique internal and interfacial charge transmission performance was fabricated by a facile ion exchange precipitation method. The optimized ANM-50 composite exhibits the maximum photocatalytic activity for the degradation of tetracycline, which is about 9.54, 2.61 and 1.86 times higher than that of pure NH 2 -MIL-68In, NH 2 -MIL-68(In/Fe) and AgI, respectively. The characterization results displayed that Ag nanoparticles (NPs) were generated during the photocatalytic procedure, which not only served as a charge transfer-highway, but also reduced the charge flow energy barrier, thereby accelerating charge transfer efficiency and consolidating the stability of the Z-scheme heterojunction. Mechanism exploration reflected that the superior photocatalytic performance was associated with synergetic effect among the introduced Fe(III), constructed ANM Z-scheme heterojunction and the generated Ag NPs, which significantly expands visible light response range and promotes more effective internal and interfacial charge separation. This research not only designs an efficient photocatalyst for decomposing tetracycline, but also opens a new perspective for rational developing Z-scheme heterojunction with unique internal and interfacial charge flow steering.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with tunable morphologies and porous architectures, show great potential in photocatalysis. A variety of MOFs can be synthesized by changing the types of metal ions and organic ligands. However, fewer studies have explored the influence of the metal-to-ligand molar ratio on the catalytic performance of the resulting MOF-related products. In this work, capsule-shaped NH 2 -MIL-68(In)/InOOH composites were synthesized by adjusting molar ratios of In(NO 3 ) 3 to 2-aminoterephthalic acid. Time-dependent characterization revealed sequential crystallization: rod-shaped NH 2 -MIL-68(In) initially formed in the solution, followed by the in-situ growth of InOOH nanowires on its surfaces via excess indium ions, ultimately constructing a Z-scheme heterojunction. The optimized NM/InOOH (8:1) composite exhibited a larger specific surface area and extended light absorption. The Z-scheme configuration significantly promoted charge carrier separation efficiency while maintaining strong redox potentials of the photoinduced holes and electrons, thereby resulting in 5–8-fold improvement in degradation rates for four dyes (AOII, RhB, MB, and Rh6G), highlighting its broad photocatalytic applicability.

Due to the wide application of tetracycline (TC), there will be residues in human daily food. It is important to develop sensitive and rapid detection methods for TC in food. In this study, a rod-like NH2-MIL-68 (In) material was developed as a DNA probe binding site for rapid detection of TC. The aptamer and NH2-MIL-68 (In) were tightly bound by glutaraldehyde. After the addition of TC, the aptamer specifically adsorbs TC in the test sample, resulting in increased impedance on the electrode and decreased electrical signal. Under optimized conditions, the sensor had a wide detection range (0.001-100 μM) and a low detection limit (0.36 nM). In addition, the NH2-MIL-68 (In)@Apta sensor was successfully applied to TC residues in milk samples with recoveries of 84.33 % -117.22 %. The results showed that our work can provide a new strategy for the direct detection of TC in food samples.

Efficient separation and transfer of photogenerated electron/hole as well as enhanced visible light absorption play essential roles in photocatalytic reactions. To promote the photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI), a toxic heavy metal ion, multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was introduced as an electron acceptor into NH 2 -MIL-68(In). This led to the growth of a willow leaf-like metal-organic framework (MOF) on an MWCNT backbone forming MWCNT/NH 2 -MIL-68(In) (PL-1), which showed a highly efficient transfer of photogenerated carriers. Moreover, MWCNT incorporation introduced more mesopores for Cr(VI) diffusion and enhanced the visible light adsorption without lowering the conduction band position. As a result, the photocatalytic kinetic constant of PL-1 was found to be almost three times higher than that of the parent NH 2 -MIL-68(In). Thus, growing MOFs on MWCNTs provides a facile and promising solution for effective remediation of environmental pollution by utilizing solar energy. This work provides the first example of using MWCNT/MOF composites for photocatalytic reactions.

Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into fuel and value-added chemicals as a promising method has been applied recently to ease energy- or environment-related crises. Herein, we construct an In2S3@NH2-MIL-68(In)@In2S3 (denoted as SMS(In)) sandwich homologous heterojunction via a controllable in situ metal–organic frameworks (MOF) sulfuration process. The improved photoreduction activity mainly lies in the effective charge transfer and separation through a homogeneous interface, enhanced CO2 adsorption and mass transfer, and plentiful reactive sites. Benefiting from this unique hollow homologous heterojunction, SMS(In)-7 obtains a CO generation rate as high as 11.23 μmol g–1 h–1 with visible-light irradiation, nearly 3 times enhancement over that of pure MOF-derived In2S3. This work provides a novel insight into the utilization of MOF-based platform for an efficient atomically heterojunction design.

Inorganic semiconductors prepared from MOFs as sacrificial precursors are promising photocatalytic materials. In this work, the direct Z -scheme MoS 2 /NH 2 -MIL-68(In)-derived In 2 S 3 (MoS 2 /In 2 S 3 ) heterojunction composites have been synthesized by sulfidation treatment of MoS 2 /NH 2 -MIL-68(In) (MoS 2 /NM68) composites. Morphological and crystal structural results confirmed that MoS 2 was uniformly dispersed in In 2 S 3 . According to the reduction for Cr(VI) experimental results, the photocatalytic performance of MoS 2 /In 2 S 3 heterojunction composite under visible light irradiation is significantly better than that of pristine MoS 2 and In 2 S 3 , respectively. In addition, the photocatalytic activities of the MoS 2 /In 2 S 3 (II) at different pH and high concentrations of Cr(VI) were also investigated. This paper presents a novel approach to the construction of heterojunction photocatalytic materials using MOFs as sacrificial precursors.

Exploring effective approach to promote more comprehensive charge transfer and efficient spatial charge separation is considered to be a prospective strategy to reinforce photocatalytic degradation activity. Herein, the oxygen vacancy modified Bi 2 WO 6 /NH 2 -MIL-68(In) Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst was successfully fabricated via a facile solvothermal method. The chemical structure, morphology, and optical properties of the photocatalyst were characterized in detail. The optimized Bi 2 WO 6 /NH 2 -MIL-68(In) Z-scheme heterojunction displayed the maximum photocatalytic efficiency (84.3 %) for the degradation of levofloxacin (LEV), which was significantly higher than that of pure Bi 2 WO 6 (45.1 %), oxygen vacancy modified Bi 2 WO 6 (69.4 %), and NH 2 -MIL-68(In) (49.3 %). Importantly, the high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D EEMs) fluorescence spectra, the photo-electrochemical and photo-luminescence measurement, radical trapping test, and electron spin resonance (ESR) technique were carried out to illuminate the probable degradation pathway and mechanism of the LEV. The improved photocatalytic efficiency can be ascribed to the synergetic effect between oxygen vacancy and the Z-scheme heterojunction, which can serve as trapping centers to enhance the generation of photoexcited electrons and accelerate the charge transfer. Meanwhile, the effects of pH, photocatalyst dose, LEV concentration and different kinds of harmful organic pollutants were systematically explored from the practical application. This study offers a novel perspective for the integration of defect engineering and Z-scheme heterojunction in efficient organic pollutants degradation.
