Novel 2D/2D g-C3N4/Bi4NbO8Cl nano-composite for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of oxytetracycline under visible LED light irradiation

Facile synthesis of a novel 0D/2D CdS/Bi4TaO8Br heterojunction for enhanced photocatalytic tetracycline hydrochloride degradation under visible light

“…4b); the valence band ( E VB ) values can be calculated based on the following eq: E VB = E g + E CB . 49 According to the results of the Mott–Schottky tests and the obtained bandgap structures of CdS, Bi 4 TaO 8 Br, and CdS/Bi 4 TaO 8 Br-200 samples, we can confirm the formation of the 0D/2D type-II heterojunction and a possible mechanism as shown in Fig. 7d.…”

Enhanced Schottky Effect in the Ni2P Cocatalyst via Work Function Up-Shift Induced by MoO2 for Boosting Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

“…Compared to bare CN, all peaks for CN and C–N in the MoO 2 /Ni 2 P@CN composite exhibited a positive-shift trend. The N 1s high-resolution XPS spectrum of CN can also be divided into four peaks at 398.6, 399.7, 400.7, and 404.2 eV, which are attributed to C–NC, N–(C) 3 , C–N–H, and π-excitation, respectively . When compared to bare CN, the N 1s peaks of the MoO 2 /Ni 2 P@CN composite were found to shift toward higher binding energies.…”

g‐C3N4‐Based 2D/2D Composite Heterojunction Photocatalyst

“…Drug degradation by photocatalytic reaction has received wide attention. Common drugs examined in photocatalytic studies include tetracycline (TC), [117] oxytetracycline, [118] ciprofloxacin (CIP), [48] ibuprofen (IBF), [69] levofloxacin, [119] naproxen, [120] acetaminophen, [121] carbamazepine, [122] sulfamethazine, [123] and nizatidine. [124] Table 6 lists the testing conditions and TC degradation activity of some g-C 3 N 4 -based Reproduced with permission.…”
