Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution and antibiotic degradation by S-scheme ZnCo2S4/TiO2
In this study, ZnCo 2 S 4 (ZCS) nanoparticles were coupled on the surface of TiO 2 by simple solvothermal method to form S-scheme heterojunction. Compared with ZCS and TiO 2 , the photocatalytic performance of ZCS/TiO 2 under simulated sunlight is significantly improved, and its hydrogen evolution efficiency reaches 5580 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 with the apparent quantum efficiency (AQY) up to 11.5% at 420 nm, which is 88.3 times and 54.3 times that of TiO 2 and ZCS, respectively. Moreover, ZCS/TiO 2 also has excellent performance in the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline (TC). The enhancement of photocatalytic performance of ZCS/TiO 2 is mainly due to S-scheme heterojunction. On the one hand, the S-scheme electron transfer path not only improves the electron-hole separation efficiency, but also improves the charge transfer efficiency. On the other hand, ZCS significantly enhances the visible light absorption of ZCS/TiO 2 . The photocatalytic mechanism and S-scheme heterojunction structure is confirmed by XPS , EPR , ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) and energy band structure . This work provides a new idea for designing and constructing S-scheme heterojunction to improve the performance of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution and TC degradation.
