Graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) is favored for its excellent physicochemical properties. However, the high complexation rate of photogenerated carriers greatly limits its practical applications. Based on this, a novel CQDs-doped carbon nitride nanosheets composite (CNS/CQDs) was prepared and applied to the visible light–induced activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for meloxicam (Mel) and tetracycline (TC) degradation. The photocatalytic degradation of Mel and TC were remarkably promoted in the CNS/CQDs+PMS+vis system. Mel photodegradation of 99.90% was achieved over 30 min with 20 mg CNS/CQDs and 20 mg PMS at pH11. And TC photodegradation of 95.97% was achieved over 45 min with 20 mg CNS/CQDs and 20 mg PMS at nature pH6.5. The TOC mineralization rates of Mel and TC were 75.49% and 52.00%, respectively. The transient photocurrent response and electrochemical impedance measurements (EIS) results indicated that the doping of CQDs could improve the charge transfer efficiency of pure g-C 3 N 4 , and CNS/CQDs had a low charge transfer resistance. Capture experiments and EPR tests explored the effective actives in the CNS/CQDs+PMS+vis system. Possible degradation pathways of Mel were also analyzed. This study provides valid residual drugs degradation under the dual conditions of visible light catalytic oxidation and persulfate oxidation, which will be a novel perspective for advanced oxidation technology to effectively remove organic pollutants from water.

Cr doped Ruddlesden-Popper compound Sr 2 TiO 4 has been successfully modified by fluorine to form a new compound Sr 2 Ti 0.95 Cr 0.05 O 3 F 2 . Structure analysis suggests two types of fluorine in the structure of this new compound, i.e. intralayer and interlayer F, which induce strong built-in electric field within this layered compound. The electric field stems from uneven distribution of F atoms on the two sides of perovskite layers therefore leads to charge disproportionation . DFT calculations suggest that this unique structural feature is highly beneficial for charge dissociations as it breaks the coplanar settlement of conduction band minimum and valence band maximum whilst maintains the 2D charge transportation properties. This is clearly demonstrated by the superior photocatalytic activities of Sr 2 Ti 0.95 Cr 0.05 O 3 F 2 for hydrogen production from water. Apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) as high as 1.16% at 420 ± 20 nm has been achieved which stands as the highest AQE reported on Sr 2 TiO 4 to date. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) analysis confirms improved charge separation conditions and prolonged charge lifetime.

La 3+ - or Yb 3+ -doped TiO 2 supported on the surface of reduced graphene oxide were fabricated by adsorbed-layer nanoreactor synthesis (ANS) coupling with a solvothermal treatment to extend photocatalysis application in the advanced treatment of simulated wastewater with high salt concentration. Results showed that La 3+ or Yb 3+ could distribute in the TiO 2 lattice, only in ANS preparation with graphene oxide as the carrier, to replace Ti 4+ during the solvothermal treatment, thus introducing TiO 2 mixed-crystal and heterojunction structures in the catalysts. La 3+ or Yb 3+ caused lattice distortion structures and anionic vacancies in the TiO 2 lattice. The anionic vacancies (oxygen vacancies) might generate Ti 3+ in catalysts, thus enhancing visible-light response, due to impurity levels introduced by La 3+ or Yb 3+ . As the strong adsorption capability of the catalyst for phenol was not interfered by salt ions in the simulated wastewater, the catalysts could efficiently degrade phenol. The highest removal rate of phenol was approximately 90%.

This communication reports the development of a new efficient visible-light-driven composite photocatalyst comprising ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles and conjugated polymer (CPVC) from the dehydrochlorination of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). ZnFe 2 O 4 /CPVC nanocomposites were synthesized via three main steps: (i) the synthesis of ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles by a sol-gel method; (ii) the adsorption of PVC in tetrahydrofuran solution by ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles to form ZnFe 2 O 4 /PVC nanocomposites; and (iii) the dehydrochlorination of PVC in the ZnFe 2 O 4 /PVC nanocomposites by heating at 150 °C for 2 h. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy characterization revealed that the as-synthesized product was core/shell structured ZnFe 2 O 4 /CPVC nanocomposites. The photocatalytic results demonstrated that the ZnFe 2 O 4 /CPVC nanocomposites had much higher photocatalytic activity than ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles in the reduction of aqueous Cr(VI) under visible-light (λ>420 nm) irradiation. Thus, ZnFe 2 O 4 /CPVC nanocomposites are promising for use as a new efficient visible-light-driven photocatalyst .

We reported a novel Fe 2 O 3 /rutile TiO 2 nanorod (NR) arrays with the heterogeneous structure for photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells, which were fabricated on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass (FTO) substrates that serve as model architecture via a hydrothermal method. Fe 2 O 3 was revealed as an inexpensive and eco-friendly semiconductor sensitizer to make TiO 2 respond to visible light . By using this photoanode, the photoelectric conversion and water splitting properties of PEC cells based on the one-dimensional (1D) Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 heterostructures were investigated in detail under simulated sunlight. Meanwhile, the optimization of photovoltaic performance was also achieved by regulating the amount of Fe 2 O 3 . The open circuit voltage and short circuit current of the Fe 2 O 3 /TiO 2 solar cell can reach 0.435 V and 1.840 mA/cm 2 , respectively. In addition, theoretical analysis of the photoelectric effect is preliminarily explored on the basis of the flat band potential results.

The appropriate construct of Z-scheme heterostructure composite with high photocatalytic activity has created new opportunities for environmental protection. Herein, graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots/tungsten trioxide (CNQDs/WO 3 ) was firstly fabricated using CNQDs decorated onto the surface of WO 3 nanorod grown along the [110] orientation in hydrothermal environment to construct a Z-scheme heterostructure composite. By various characterization methods, the crystal structure, micro morphology, atomic valence state and surface functional groups of the catalyst were systematically revealed. The results indicated that Z-scheme heterojunctions between CNQDs and WO 3 were successfully constructed. Compared with pure WO 3 , CNQDs/WO 3 exhibited prominent photoreduction performance under visible light irradiation. The optimal 5% CNQDs/WO 3 could reduce almost 100% Cr (VI) under acidic condition with the best photocatalytic activity within 90 min. More than this, 5% CNQDs/WO 3 also displayed excellent stability and recyclability even after five cycles of photoreduction experiments. Based on the free radical quenching experiments, the possible photoreduction reaction mechanism had been proposed in detail. The Z-scheme heterostructure provided the possibility of the generation, rapidly transfer and efficient separation of photogenerated electrons, which were major active species in the Cr (VI) photoreduction process.

Light absorption range, recycling stability and charge transfer efficiency are key to the performance of photocatalytic material. Based on these targets, a Al doped TiO 2 catalyst was synthesized by the evaporation-induced process, after processed by NaBH 4 reduction, the black TiO 2 doped with Al was finally prepared. Uv-vis DRS, EPR and XPS analyses confirm the expanded light absorption window (300 nm - 1000 nm) and the introduction of abundant oxygen vacancy after the reduction process. The final product BTiO 2 /Al-0.5 has a degradation rate of about 84 % over the tetracycline hydrochloride within 60 minutes, the reaction rate constant (k) is 10.6 times higher than the unreduced sample. The dramatic change of photocatalytic ability can be assigned to the broadened visible light absorption , increased charge separation efficiency, narrowed band gap and defect-enriched oxygen vacancy . This work offers insights into the fabrication of TiO 2 catalyst and the introduction of oxygen defect.

The development of electrochromic devices (ECDs) that can dynamically modulate infrared (IR) emissivity while maintaining a wide color gamut distribution for visible (VIS)-IR compatible spectral manipulation has been a long-standing challenge. Current ECDs are limited by simultaneous changes in IR emissivity and VIS colors when subjected to external potential, restricting their potential applications. This work presents, for the first time, VIS–IR compatible ECDs capable of displaying VIS multicolor and dynamically modulating IR emissivity via a Ge/HfO 2 Fabry–Perot cavity structure. The all-solid-state VIS-IR compatible ECD with the structure of ITO/NiO/Ta 2 O 5 /Li/WO 3 /ITO/Ge/HfO 2 achieves not only emissivity modulation of 0.20 at potentials of −2.5 V and +2.5 V in the wavelength range of 2.5–25 µm, but also, due to the presence of Fabry–Perot cavity, the novelty compatible device structure achieves static multicolor modulation, thus decoupling VIS and IR emissivity modulation. Additionally, a flexible VIS-IR compatible ECD based on polyaniline is also constructed. This novel approach offers a promising possibility for multispectral compatible manipulation, VIS multicolor, and IR signal processing applications.

Single-crystalline AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets have been successfully fabricated by facile hydrothermal method without any surfactants. Subsequently, Ag/AgBr-grafted AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets were synthesized by the in situ photoreduction of AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites prepared by a deposition–precipitation method. Under visible light irradiation. The Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites exhibit a strong absorbance in the visible region because of the surface plasmon resonance absorption of Ag nanocrystals. Compared with bare AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 nanosheets, Ag/AgBr nanoparticles and Ag/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites, a dramatic enhancement in the degradation rate of tetracycline (TC) is observed over the Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 composites. The immense enhancement of the photocatalytic activity is attributed to the extended absorption in the visible-light region, effective charge separation, and synergistic enhancement induced by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the heterostructured Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 . This study provides new insight into the fabrication of highly efficient and stable ternary metal molybdate based plasmonic photocatalysts and facilitates their practical application to solve environmental issues. The mechanism for the photodegradation of TC over Ag/AgBr/AgIn(MoO 4 ) 2 is discussed in detail.
