Oxygen vacancy-rich Bi/Bi 3 TaO 7 binary nanomaterials were obtained by a simple in situ reduction . The as-prepared composite exhibited superior photocatalytic activity for the degradation of RhB compared to the single material under the visible light range. The degradation rate of the optimal sample reached 92% within 120 min, 12.25 times that of the pure Bi 3 TaO 7 . XRD and HRTEM characterization showed that the Bi metal obtained through in situ reduction was loaded on the Bi 3 TaO 7 nanostructure. In addition, XPS and EPR indicated a significant increase in the oxygen vacancy content of the composites. The time-resolved transient fluorescence spectroscopy and photocurrent results proved that the separation rate of photoexcited carriers and the corresponding ability of photoelectrons are greatly increased. It is due to the synergistic effect of the unique photo-reaction excitation pathway induced by bismuth metal plasma resonance and oxygen vacancies, which not only extends the photo-reaction to the infrared region but also increases the carrier residence time, and this is the fundamental reason for the excellent photocatalytic performance of the composite material. The h + is the main reactive radical of the reaction, and •O 2 − also plays a role. Based on the above characterization study, we propose a possible photoreaction mechanism for the synergistic oxygen vacancy and Bi metal of Bi/Bi 3 TaO 7 .

The (1− x )BaTiO 3 – x Bi(Zn 2/3 Nb 1/3 )O 3 ( x = 0.01–0.30) ceramics were synthesized by solid-state reactions. The solubility limit was determined to be x = 0.20. A systematic structural transition from a tetragonal phase ( x ≤ 0.034), to a mixture of tetragonal and rhombohedral phases (0.038 ≤ x ≤ 0.20), and finally to a pseudocubic phase ( x ≥ 0.22) at room temperature was identified. Dielectric measurement revealed a ferroelectric ( x ≤ 0.04) to relaxor ( x ≥ 0.06) transition with permittivity peak broadening and flattening, which was further verified by Raman spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Activation energies obtained from the Vogel–Fulcher model displayed an increasing trend from ~0.03 eV for x ~ 0.05, to unusually high values (>0.20 eV) for the compositions with x ≥ 0.15. With the increase in Bi(Zn 2/3 Nb 1/3 )O 3 content, the polarization hysteresis demonstrated a tendency from high nonlinearity to sublinearity coupled with the reduction in remnant polarization and coervice field. The deconvolution of the irreversible/reversible polarization contribution was enabled by first-order reversal curve distributions, which indicates that the decreasing polarization nonlinearity with the increase in Bi(Zn 2/3 Nb 1/3 )O 3 concentration could be related with the change from the ferroelectric domain and domain wall contributions to the weakly coupled relaxor behaviors.

Structural design of semiconductor photocatalysts plays an important role in promoting light absorption, molecular activation, and charge separation in the CO 2 reduction reaction, which is beneficial for improving photocatalytic activity. In this paper, a simple photodeposition strategy was employed to load Cu onto Bi 2 O 2 SO 4 and form a Cu-Bi alloy. Under simulated sunlight conditions, the optimal catalyst demonstrates impressive photocatalytic activity and selectivity for CO 2 reduction, with a corresponding yield of 18.8 μmol g -1 h -1 , 15 times higher than that of pure Bi 2 O 2 SO 4 , and CO selectivity reaching 97.1%. The results indicate that metal deposition enhances light absorption utilization efficiency and promotes the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers. Additionally, the combination of in-situ FT-IR spectra and theoretical calculations reveal the molecular mechanisms of photocatalytic CO 2 reduction. This work discusses the synergistic effect of metal deposition and oxygen vacancies on photocatalytic reduction of CO 2 , providing a feasible method for constructing metal deposition structures with defects.

Building efficient catalysts is an urgent issue in the field of photocatalytic CO 2 reduction, and Z-scheme heterojunction structures can availably suppress the recombination of photo generated carriers and improve photocatalytic performance. This study successfully prepared a new type of Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /Bi-MOF composite photocatalyst through self-assembly method. After 5 h of simulated sunlight exposure, the optimized sample 50-Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /Bi-MOF photocatalytic reduction of CO 2 to CO efficiency (23.78 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 ) was 5.09 times higher than pure Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 , and the CH 4 yield (5.39 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 ) was 2.52 times that of pure Bi-MOF. In addition, in the cyclic experiment, the catalyst had high stability and reusability. The Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism was confirmed through band structure analysis, Electron spin resonance (ESR), Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) and other related characterizations. This work provided an important strategy for designing efficient Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts.

The rational design strategy to construct lanthanide ion functionalized metal organic frameworks (MOFs) has attracted tremendous attention as they are promising candidates for developing novel luminescence materials and optical sensors owing to their intense, long-lived and tunable luminescence performances. In this work, a series of Eu3+/Tb3+ singly doped or codoped bismuth-based MOFs were prepared under in situ facile solvothermal conditions using BiOBr nanoplates as bismuth resources. A red-green-blue-based trichromatic white-light emission can be finely achieved by modulating the doping ratio of Eu3+/Tb3+ in the blue-emitting Bi-MOF host material and such photoluminescence tuning can also be realized by controlling the excitation wavelength. In addition, the Eu3+/Tb3+ singly incorporated Bi-MOF can serve as a multifunctional fluorescent probe for sensing Fe3+ and Cr2O72− ions in aqueous solution, as well as small organic pollutants of acetone molecules, and their sensing mechanisms have also been analyzed. These lanthanide ion functionalized Bi-MOF materials exhibit great potential in exploring white-light emitting devices and construction of supersensitive multifunctional sensors.

Photocatalysis is the most promising green approach to solve antibiotic pollution in water, but the actual treatment effect is limited by photocatalytic activity. Herein, Bi and BiOCl were loaded onto the surface of Ce-MOF (metal–organic framework) using an electrostatic adsorption method, and a special ternary heterojunction of Ce/Bi/BiOCl was successfully prepared as a photocatalyst for the degradation of tetracycline (TC). FTIR demonstrated that the obtained photocatalyst contains functional groups such as -COOH belonging to Ce-MOF and characteristic crystal planes of Bi and BiOCl, indicating the successful construction of a ternary photocatalyst. The results of UV–vis absorption spectra confirm that the band gap of Ce/Bi/BiOCl heterojunction is reduced from 3.35 eV to 2.7 eV, resulting in an enhanced light absorption capability in the visible light region. The special ternary heterojunction constructed by Ce-MOF, Bi, and BiOCl could achieve a narrow band gap and reasonable band structure, thereby enhancing the separation of photogenerated charges. Consequently, the photocatalytic performance of the Ce/Bi/BiOCl ternary heterojunction was significantly enhanced compared to Ce-MOF, Bi, and BiOCl. Therefore, Ce/Bi/BiOCl can achieve a photocatalytic degradation rate of 97.7% within 20 min, which is much better than Bi (14.8%) and BiOCl (67.9%). This work successfully constructed MOF-based ternary photocatalysts and revealed the relationship between ternary heterojunctions and photocatalytic activity. This provides inspiration for constructing other heterogeneous catalysts for use in the field of photocatalysis.

Previous studies have revealed that both Bi doping and Bi2Te3 alloying are successful strategies to optimize the thermoelectric performance of SnTe; however, detailed and thorough investigations on exactly how they differ in modulating the band structure and microstructure were seldom given. Through a systematic comparison between Bi-doped and Bi2Te3-alloyed SnTe, we find in this work that despite the fact that they both contribute to the valence band convergence of SnTe, Bi2Te3 alloying induces little effect on the hole concentration unlike the typical n-type feature of Bi-doping; moreover, Bi2Te3 alloying tends to produce dense dislocation arrays at micron-scale grain boundaries which differs significantly from the substitutional point defect character upon Bi-doping. It was then found that Bi2Te3 alloying exhibits a relatively higher quality factor (B ∼ μw/κlat) at higher temperatures than Bi-doping. Subsequent Ge-doping in Bi2Te3-alloyed samples results in further valence band convergence and hole concentration optimization and eventually results in a maximum figure of merit ZT of 1.4 at 873 K in the composition of (Sn0.88Ge0.12Te)0.97-(BiTe1.5)0.03.

Gas sensors based on metal oxide semiconductors (MOSCs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for sensing of organic volatile compounds often suffer from high operation temperature, low responses, poor selectivity, or narrow detection range. Herein, we design and fabricate Bi-doped rGO/Co 3 O 4 (BGCO) nanohybrids with a flower morphology, which have been applied as a sensing layer for an ethanol sensor. This BGCO sensor exhibits a maximum p -type response of 178.1 towards 500 ppm ethanol at an optimum working temperature of 120 °C. The sensor’s detection range for the ethanol concentration is from 500 ppb to 500 ppm, and the sensor has an excellent selectivity to ethanol compared to other types of organic volatile gases and oxidizing gas such as NO 2 . The enhanced ethanol sensing mechanism is attributed to the increased conductivity of Bi doped rGO/Co 3 O 4 material. Additionally, incorporation of Bi dopant can promote the redox reaction, and the rGO/Co 3 O 4 act as the catalyst.

Photocatalysis is appealing in removing trace NO, but its efficacy is often deteriorated by H 2 O, which is ubiquitous in environment, and how to resolve this issue and elucidate the underlying mechanisms at the molecular-level are challenging. Herein, we report a full-spectrum Bi/Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 catalyst modified with Bi-O vacancy associates via a steam-assisted chemical reduction process. The optimized structure demonstrates NO removal efficiency of 75.5 %, four times over its counterpart, Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 (37.9 %). Based on positron annihilation spectra and theoretical studies, the enhanced activity is induced by Bi-O vacancy associates, which not only optimizes the photogenerated carrier dynamical behaviors but lowers the energy barriers for photocatalytic oxidation of NO. Importantly, the photothermal activity of the optimal sample exhibited a decline from 76.7 % (0 % RH) to 71.2 % (100 % RH), whereas its photoactivity (20°C) demonstrated a more pronounced decrease, dropping from 60.1 % (0 % RH) to 41.2 % (100 % RH). Therefore, humidity-resistant performance over the optimal sample is attributed to photothermal effect induced by in-situ precipitated Bi and multiple defects. Furthermore, the results of adsorption and desorption behavior of H 2 O and in situ DRIFTS suggest the photothermal-assisted desorption of surface-bound H 2 O can suppress the interactions of H 2 O and stable bidentate nitrate ( bi -NO 3 ⁻) by hydrogen bonds to generate monodentate nitrate ( m -NO 3 ⁻), thereby hindering the photodecomposition of m -NO 3 ⁻ to NO/NO 2 . This work elucidates the significance of photothermal effect in developing efficient photocatalyst for atmospheric NO purification in humid conditions.

In CO 2 electroreduction, mutative intermediates and the challenging C C coupling necessitate the spatial interplay between active sites and through dynamically optimizing configurations. Herein, we anchor ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-bonded Cu x+ /Bi 3+ pair within UiO-66 for a spontaneous spatial-optimizing CO 2 -to-C 2 H 4 electroreduction. Ab initio molecular dynamic (AIMD) simulation visualizes that such metal pair adaptively interacts with intermediates. Density functional theory (DFT) elicits the componential synergy, in which an upshift d-band of Cu activates CO 2 being protonated into *COOH while Bi site stabilizes oxygenated dimers for deep hydrogenation. The dynamic feature of such pair affords large freedom for sorption and migration of various intermediates, which consequently bestows UiO-66-EDTA/CuBi a maximal FE C 2 H 4 of 47 % and a total current density over 100 mA cm −2 in the flow cell.

For capacitor applications, Ba(Sm 1- x - y La x Bi y ) 2 Ti 4 O 12 dielectric ceramics with La/Bi co-substitution for Sm were prepared using the conventional solid-state method. Part of Sm 3+ was found to be replaced by La 3+ and Bi 3+ in ceramics that exhibit an orthorhombic tungsten bronze structure. As the concentration of Bi 3+ increased, a second phase of Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 was observed. The co-substitutions could reduce the sintering temperature and effectively increase the dielectric constant from 80 to 140. The dielectric loss increased slightly with increasing La 3+ and Bi 3+ , but it still remained below 0.1% at 1 kHz. After sintering, a specific composition was achieved with x = 0.1 and y = 0.4. It has a high dielectric constant of 132, an ultra-low dielectric loss of approximately 0.06%, and excellent frequency stability. Additionally, it exhibits a capacitance-temperature change of ± 1% at 1 kHz over a temperature range of − 55 to 125 °C.

The oxidative mineralization of sulfanilamide drugs (SAs) using micro-size zero-valent iron (mZVI) cooperated with a citric acid buffer solution was evaluated. In this study SM2, SMX, and SD could be removed at 66%, 89%, and 83%, respectively, in a 0.5% Bi/mZVI+CA+NaCA system within 2 h. Based on our analysis, the produced ·OH could be ascribed from the complexation between citrate iron (Fe(II)[Cit]−) and the generated H2O2resulting from the activation of O2on the mZVI surface in the Bi/mZVI+CA+NaCA system, further inducing the mineralization of antibiotics. The related possible degradation pathways were proposed. Two similar degradation pathways of SM2, SMX, and SD in the mixed liquid, including hydroxylation and SO2extrusion, were solved. Meanwhile, there was an additional proposed degradation pathway for SMX to be degraded more effectively, as reflected in the opening of the N-O bond on the benzene ring. Therefore, this work provides an experimental basis and theoretical support for the efficient treatment of antibiotic wastewater in real industry by using an iron-based method.Keywords:sulfanilamide drugs;Bi/mZVI;antibiotic;oxidative degradation
