In-situ synthesis of Z-scheme Ag2CO3/Ag/AgNCO heterojunction photocatalyst with enhanced stability and photocatalytic activity
2019
Abstract A novel ternary Ag 2 CO 3 /Ag/AgNCO Z-scheme heterojunction with excellent visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance was fabricated. The O 2 − and, h + were proved to be the photocatalytic active substances for the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) in Ag 2 CO 3 /Ag/AgNCO. Compared to pristine Ag 2 CO 3 and AgNCO, the enhanced photocatalytic activities of Ag 2 CO 3 /Ag/AgNCO could be attributed to the low resistance for interfacial charge transfer and desirable absorption capability. In addition, the Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism is proved by the discussion of the band structure. This work could offer a new insight into the design and fabrication of advanced materials with Z-scheme structures for the efficient treatment of persistent pollutants in wastewater.
