In this study, the advanced chemical vapor transport (CVT) method in combination with the quenching effect is introduced for creating molybdenum oxide nanoparticle arrays, composed of the hierarchical structure of fine nanoparticles (NPs), which are vertically grown with a homogeneous coverage on the individual carbon fibers of carbon fiber paper (CFP) substrates. The obtained molybdenum oxide NPs hold a metastable high-temperature γ-Mo4O11 phase along with a stable α-MoO3 phase by the quenching effect. Furthermore, such a quenching effect forms thinner and smaller nanoparticle aggregates by suppressing the growth and coalescence of primary particles. The molybdenum oxide nanoparticle aggregates are prepared using two different types of precursors: MoO3 and a 1:1 (mol/mol) mixture of MoO3 and activated carbon. The results characterized using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy show that the relative amount of α-MoO3 to γ-Mo4O11 within the prepared NPs is dependent on the precursor type; a lower amount of α-MoO3 to γ-Mo4O11 is obtained in the NPs prepared using the mixed precursor of MoO3 and carbon. This processing–structure landscape study can serve as the groundwork for the development of high-performance nanomaterials in various electronic and catalytic applications.

“…Therefore, proper ZnO contents are beneficial to ) and hydroxyl radicals (HO * ) in the photocatalytic degradation, was studied by free radical capture experiments. The sacrificial agents, EDTA, IPA, AA, are added to the solution to remove the corresponding active species, h + , O 2 À * , HO * , respectively [36] . The results (Figure 7d) clearly show adding the sacrificial agents AA and IPA can effectively inhibit the photocatalytic reaction process of 3 M (from 100 % to 69.19 % and 47.89 %).…”

The heterojunction structure photocatalysts are very promising for photocatalytic degradation dyes to resolve the organic industrial wastewater. In this work, an effective and solar lightdriven Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst CAS/ZnO was prepared by two steps microwave irradiation method. The ZnO nanosheets were successfully compounded with CAS tetragonal particles aggregate. As the ZnO concentration increased, the absorbance decreased but the specific surface area increased. Rhodamine B (RhB) was tested for photodegradation by photocatalysts under a solar simulation in 120 min, and 3 M displayed the highest degradation rate (100 %), highest rate constant (0.021 min À 1 ) and optimum stability. Furthermore, the main reactive species were superoxide radicals (O 2 À *) and hydroxyl radicals (HO * ). Also, mechanism of the Z-scheme migration of photon-generated carrier and photocatalytic degradation was proposed. This paper provides a new Zscheme heterojunction CAS/ZnO photocatalyst for the treatment of organic pollutants.
