Boosting the photocatalytic performances of covalent organic frameworks enabled by spatial modulation of plasmonic nanocrystals

Structural Characteristics and Environmental Applications of Covalent Organic Frameworks

“…JUC-521-Fe achieved a very high catalytic activity with a reaction rate constant of 2.8 × 10 −2 /min and more than 95% degradation efficiency in just 90 min. Similar approaches have been employed by other groups to degrade pollutants such as phenol [135], BPA [136], and organic dyes [137][138][139][140][141].…”

Covalent-Organic-Framework-Based Composite Materials

“…AuSP: sparsely dispersed Au; AuCP: close-packed Au) for photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) and photodehalogenation of phenacyl bromide (Figure 2). 42 The optical and electrochemical properties of Au/COF composites can be adjusted by controlling the spatial distribution of Au NPs. The Au3SP/COF (3 nm Au NPs) composite shows the best photocatalytic performance.…”

Steered polymorphic nanodomains in TiO2 to boost visible-light photocatalytic oxidation

“…To design advanced photocatalysts should integrate three elements, that is, good photochemical properties, high photocatalytic activity, and excellent long-term stability/capacity. 24,25 Designing composite photocatalysts with heterogeneous junctions is an effective approach for tuning the electronic and interface structure, 26,27 that are benecial for the fast charge transfer. 28,29 Thus far, manifold heterogenous components such as noble metal, 30,31 transition metal oxide/sulde, 32,33 and metal-organic framework materials, 34,35 etc.…”
