Configuring reactive and stable catalytic interfaces is crucial to design efficient photocatalysts for Cr(VI) reduction. Herein, via the platinum decoration approach based on interfacial engineering , we developed an effective catalytic interface within novel semiconducting chalcopyrite quantum dots (Pt/CuFeS 2 QDs). Benefiting from the catalytic merits of the Pt modulated interfacial structure and electronic structure, Pt/CuFeS 2 QDs show a broader light absorption capability extending to near-infrared radiation (NIR) range with superior carriers separation performance and faster charge transfer efficiency, which delivers a three-folder faster photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction efficiency comparing to the original CuFeS 2 QDs. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations unravel that Pt atoms prefer to be anchored with the surface S atoms to form a stable interfacial structure with faster electron transfer and Cr(VI) reduction dynamics. This work demonstrates that platinum decoration based on interfacial engineering is an effective strategy to simultaneously modulate the band structure and accelerate the interfacial reaction dynamics for semiconductor photocatalysts, which paves the way for designing highly efficient photocatalysts for light-driven environmental and energy engineering applications.

To fully utilize the solar light, photocatalyst with broad spectrum response from UV to near-infrared (NIR) is desirable. In this work, ternary mixed valent Bi 2 O 4 -Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x with rich oxygen vacancy has been synthesized through one-pot hydrothermal treatment of NaBiO 3 . The results showed that through adjusting the hydrothermal conditions, oxygen vacancy-rich Bi 2 O 4 -Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x nanocomposites with much higher efficiency than single or mixed bismuth oxides (Bi 2 O 4 , Bi 4 O 7 , BiO 2-x and Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x ,) can be synthesized for photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) under UV, visible, and NIR light irradiation. In addition, the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC–MS) characterization demonstrated that BPA was oxidized to 4-isopropenyphenol first and the rings were opened sequentially under NIR light irradiation. Further detection of reactive species indicated that holes, O 2 − , and OH were the main oxidizing species in the degradation system. The experimental observations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that both type-II and the Z-scheme charge transfer with oxygen vacancies as electrons and holes mediators were formed at the interfaces of Bi 2 O 4 , Bi 4 O 7 , and BiO 2-x , resulting in a very efficient separation of photogenerated charge carriers in the composite. This work adds to the growing potential of mixed valent bismuth oxides based photocatalysts and is expected to accelerate the pace of the development of new-generation photocatalysts with high efficiency utilizing full-spectrum solar light.

A composite of chromium (III) terephthalate metal-organic framework and graphene oxide (MIL-101/GO) coated stir bar was prepared by sol–gel technique for the first time and was employed for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) of trace azo dyes amaranth, sunset yellow and carmine from water samples followed by UV–Vis spectrophotometric detection. A MIL-101/GO coating was first created on the glass bar surface. MIL-101/GO and MIL-101/GO coated stir bars were characterized. The enrichment factors of azo dyes by SBSE have been investigated in detail, and the optimized experimental parameters were obtained. Under the optimal conditions, a method for determination of trace amount of azo dyes was setup, and the detection limits of amaranth, sunset yellow and carmine were 2.3 ng/mL, 1.7 ng/mL and 1.6 ng/mL. The proposed method was successfully applied for the analysis of the three azo dyes in water samples.

Broad spectrum response photocatalyst is crucial for making full use of sunlight and widely used in efficient photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes. In this work, upconversion luminescence boosted broadband photocatalysts based on BiF 3 :Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanoparticles (BFY) and the carbon nitride doped with various masses of barbituric acid (CNB x ) semiconductor materials (BFY/CNB x ) were successfully designed and produced for photocatalysis in UV–Vis–NIR region. Compared with pure g-C 3 N 4 , BFY/CNB 0.5 composites have better photocatalytic performance attributed to the utilization of broadband spectrum energy and effective charge separation. After 30 min illumination by visible light , photodegradation efficiency of RhB reaches about 99.4% by using BFY-2/CNB 0.5 . A plot of C/C 0 versus time indicates that the BFY-2/CNB 0.5 can degrade about 64.7% of RhB in 80 min by NIR irradiation. Under simulated solar light, the sample of BFY-2/CNB 0.5 reaches a maximum degradation efficiency of 98.0% within 15 min. The strengthened photocatalytic activity is due to the synergistic effect of CNB 0.5 and upconversion materials. The active species utilized in the degradation process were examined using capture experiments. After four continuous photocatalytic cycles, about 94.0% of RhB solution is degraded. The photocatalytic mechanism of the composite photocatalysts is also analyzed in detail. The results indicate that the prepared BFY/CNB 0.5 photocatalysts have good prospects in the field of environmental remediation.

Combining upconversion materials with narrow-wide bandgap semiconductors to construct heterostructured composite photocatalysts effectively improves solar energy conversion efficiency. NYF:Ln 3+ (Ln = Yb,Er,Tm)@BiOX(X = Cl,Br,I) heterostructures were prepared by a two-step hydrothermal method. This work explores the effects of different lanthanide ion doping and narrow-wide bandgap bismuth oxyhalides on the performance of the heterostructures system. Under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI degraded 94 % BPA within 160 min. Significantly, compared with NYF:Yb,Er@BiOCl, NYF:Yb,Er@BiOBr and the NYF:Yb,Er,Tm/BiOI mechanical mixtures, the photocatalytic activity of NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI was increased by 9.4 times, 3.7 times and 1.8 times, respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to the doping of Er-Tm double-activated ions, which provides multiple upconversion emissions and forms more overlap in the narrow bandgap BiOI absorption spectrum, making it advantageous to utilize upconversion light fully. Eventually, an underlying mechanism was proposed that the existence of FRET in the NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI heterostructure leads to enhanced photocatalytic activity. This work provides new insights into the design of advanced structures for NIR-responsive photocatalysts.

Vanadyl porphyrins, which have central metals in the form of cations, are liable to coordinate axially with basic ligands. In the presented paper, the interaction behaviors of vanadyl octaethylporphyrin (VOOEP) with different basic ligands, viz. amines and N-heterocycles (such as pyridine, morpholine, n-butylamine, triethylamine, diethylamine, azetidine, and pyrrolidine), have been studied in detail through ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy, collision-induced dissociation (CID) combined with Orbitrap mass spectrometry (MS), and density functional theory (DFT). The axial coordination ability and binding preference of VOOEP and ligands, as well as the relative stability, binding energies, and absorption spectra of the VOOEP-ligand complexes, were fully characterized in this study. The complexes involved two types of binding forms: axial coordination bonding and hydrogen bonding. It was observed that the axial coordination between VOOEP and basic ligands resulted in a decrease in intensity and red-shift of the UV–vis Soret band compared to pure VOOEP. Moreover, the axial coordination is closely correlated to the basicity and steric hindrance of the ligands. The relative stability and binding energies of the complexes are positively related to the basicity of the ligands. Additionally, besides VOOEP-ligand complexes (1:1 adducts), VOOEP-VOOEP-ligand complexes (2:1 adducts) were also observed and studied. This work offers insights that may aid petrochemists in the separation, enrichment, or selective removal of vanadyl porphyrins from petroleum samples and the investigation of porphyrin-asphaltene association behavior.

A novel magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) with a new functional monomer Triallyl isocyanurate was synthesized successfully to enrich and detect sterigmatocystin (STG) in wheat samples. The differential UV–vis spectra and the reverse prediction method were selected to achieve the optimal synthesis conditions of the MMIPs, which were characterized well. The adsorption experiment showed that MMIPs have high selectivity and sensitivity. A magnetic solid phase extraction combined with high performance liquid chromatography (MSPE-HPLC) method based on the MMIPs was successfully established with the optimal extraction condition. The linear range and RSD were 1.8–25 ng·g −1 and 2.6–4.1%, respectively. The recovery of this method was 87.6–96.9% and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.63 ng·g −1 . The excellent sensitivity and selectivity of this method were confirmed by experiment of the extraction and detection of STG in wheat extracts. This work extends the use of molecular imprinting in mycotoxins applications.

The development of ultraviolet to near-infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) responsive photocatalysts offers a unique opportunity for the full use of solar energy to solve the energy and the environmental problems. Here, successful preparation of a three-dimensional (3D) porous photocatalyst of graphitic carbon nitride quantum dot (CNQDs) modified g-C 3 N 4 /graphene oxide composite aerogel (CNGO/CNQDs) via hydrothermal and vacuum injection method was reported. In this unique ternary 3D photocatalyst, graphene oxide could improve the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes and promote the charge separation, while the aerogel's 3D network structure provided a rich active site. Simultaneously, due to the appropriate up-conversion performance of the nitrogen carbide quantum dots, CNGO/CNQDs achieved a light response from ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (NIR). These properties endow it with a good photocatalytic performance. The hydrogen production efficiency of CNGO/CNQDs reached 1231 μmol h −1 , which was 16 times more than that of matrix material . In addition, the apparent quantum yields (AQY) of CNGO/CNQDs at wavelengths of 420 nm and 700 nm were 13% and 0.116%, respectively.

Methylene blue (MB) is a dye pollutant commonly present in textile wastewater. We investigate and critically evaluate the applicability of BaTiO 3 /GO composite for photodegradation of MB in synthetic wastewater under UV–vis irradiation. To enhance its performance, the BaTiO 3 /GO composite is varied based on the BaTiO 3 weight. To compare and evaluate any changes in their morphologies and crystalline structures before and after treatment, BET (Brunauer–Emmett–Teller), XRD (X-ray diffraction), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and TEM (transmission electron microscopy) tests are conducted, while the effects of reaction time, pH, dose of photocatalyst and initial MB concentration on its photodegradation by the composite are also investigated under identical conditions. The degradation pathways and removal mechanisms of MB by the BaTiO 3 /GO are elaborated. It is evident from this study that the BaTiO 3 /GO composite is promising for MB photodegradation through ·OH. Under optimized conditions (0.5 g/L of dose, pH 9.0, and 5 mg/L of MB concentration), the composite with 1:2 dose ratio of BaTiO 3 /GO has the highest MB degradation rate (95%) after 3 h of UV vis irradiation. However, its treated effluents still could not comply with the discharge standard limit of less than 0.2 mg/L imposed by national environmental legislation. This suggests that additional biological treatments are still required to deal with the remaining oxidation by-products of MB, still present in the wastewater samples such as 3,7-bis (dimethyl-amino)-10H-phenothiazine 5-oxide.

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), characterized by their extreme toxicity, high persistency and bioaccumulation, regard as one of the most concerned environmental pollutants on the priority list. In this study, microwave-hydrothermal and photoreduction methods were adopted for fabrication of ternary Au@Fe/TiO 2 composites for removal of 2,8-dichlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,8-DCDD) under UV–Vis light irradiation. The acquired materials were characterized and analyzed by XRD, TEM, XPS, UV–Vis DRS, PL , etc. As a result, the 1%Au@1%Fe/TiO 2 exhibited much higher photocatalytic activity that 96.3% of 2,8-DCDD was removed within 160 min with respect to that of Fe/TiO 2 (3.0 times) and TiO 2 (5.5 times). It revealed the active substances might be produced, which were verified by ESR analysis. In a comparison, the 1%Au@1%Fe/TiO 2 also exhibited high activity in that 97.2% of 2,8-DCDD was removed within 240 min under an anoxic atmosphere. The 1%Au@1%Fe/TiO 2 systems were all pH-dependent that 2,8-DCDD could be fully degraded in neutral conditions. The results of repeatability on 1%Au@1%Fe/TiO 2 showed that the sample was high stability. Fe doping improved the charge separation of TiO 2 and Au modification improved the activity via SPR effect and Mott-Schottky barrier. The degradation mechanisms and pathways were proposed and discussed in detail. The current work develops a new approach on photocatalytic oxidation and reductive dechlorination of dioxins and may open a new opportunity to extend the application range of TiO 2 catalysts.

Background: Tryptophan (Trp) is an essential amino acid and plays important roles in biological processes. The detection of Trp is very important for its biological and chemical study. Moreover, Trp is a chiral compound; due to its importance in biological processes, researchers have been long committed to the chiral recognition and sensing of Trp enantiomers. Methods: Two biosurfactants, sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate, were used for the preparation of functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) which were characterized by transmission electron microscope and potentiometer. UV-Vis spectra of functionalized gold nanoparticle solutions with different concentrations of Trp, tyrosine, phenylalanine, D-Trp, and L-Trp were analyzed. Then, the discrimination mechanism was further investigated, and the promotion mechanism of biosurfactants was studied by density functional theory (DFT). Results: Trp could induce the aggregation of unmodified AuNPs in 2 h, while phenylalanine and tyrosine could not. Adding biosurfactants promoted the aggregation process, and D- Trp rather than LTrp was found to be responsible for the aggregation. Therefore, there were interaction differences not only between Trp, phenylalanine, and tyrosine but also between Trp enantiomers. Conclusion: UV-vis spectroscopy could be applied for the direct detection of Trp in mixtures as well as the chiral recognition of Trp enantiomers. DFT calculations proved that the interactions of D-Trp with biosurfactants were the strongest, which contributes to the promotion of aggregation.

Lead-free perovskites are considered to be candidates for next-generation photodetectors, because of their excellent charge carrier transport properties and low toxicity. However, their application in integrated circuits is hindered by their inadequate performance and size restrictions. To aim at the development of lead-free perovskite-integrated optoelectronic devices, a CsAg2I3/silicon (CAI/Si) heterojunction is presented in this work by using a spatial confinement growth method, where the in-plane growth of CAI microbelts with high-quality single-crystal characteristics is primarily dependent on the concentration of surrounding precursor solution. The fabricated photodetectors based on the CAI/Si heterojunctions exhibit a broad-spectrum detection capability in the ultraviolet–visible–near-infrared (UV-vis-NIR) range. In addition, the photodetectors show good photoelectric detection performance, including a maximum responsivity of 48.5 mA/W and detectivity of 1.13 × 1011 Jones, respectively. Besides, the photodetectors have a rapid response of 6.5/224 μs and good air stability for over 2 months. This work contributes a new idea to design next-generation optoelectronic devices with high integration density.
