Screen-printed p–n BiOCl/BiFeO3 heterojunctions for efficient photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B

“…S6(b)† can be considered negligible. 15,26,49,50 Two conclusions can be drawn from this experiment. First, the photocatalytic degradation reactions are partially triggered by the light beam used to continuously measure absorption from the solution.…”

“…5(b) and display a typical Langmuir–Hinshelwood behavior. 26,49 R -square values higher than 0.99% are obtained for all degradation curves using the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation: −ln( C / C o ) = k app t , where C and C o are live and initial concentrations of RhB, k app is the apparent first-order kinetics model (min −1 ) and t is the time. 50 The k app values thus obtained are summarized in the inset of Fig.…”

Recent Advances of Bismuth Halide Based Nanomaterials for Photocatalytic Antibacterial and Photodynamic Therapy

“…Therefore, their photocatalytic activity can be significantly enhanced by modulating the morphology of nanomaterials. [44][45][46] Figure 4 shows two different morphologies of 2D ultrathin nanosheet (BiNS@ NaLnF 4 ) and flower-like nanoparticles (BiNPs@NaLnF 4 ) by a facile solvothermal method. BiNS@NaLnF 4 with special heterojunction enhanced the utilization of electron/hole and promotes the generation of ROS under visible light illumination, further expanding the therapeutic effect.…”

Fabrication of different SnO2 nanorods for enhanced photocatalytic degradation and antibacterial activity

“…However, these types of materials, created for the rst time, displayed a better e ciency in photocatalytic performances with a well-known photo-generated recombination used in different light sources with respect to the various organic pollutants and dyes. These semiconductor materials possess more favorable photocatalytic studies boosting the degradation e ciency as well as exhibiting the synergistic effects (Dong et al 2017;Yu et al 2018;Sun et al 2018;Cai et al 2019;Sun et al 2006;Tie et al 2018;Tan et al 2018;Zhang et al 2017;Heo et al 2019;Dong et al 2019a;Dong et al 2019b).…”
