摘要
Bi2MoO6 has drawn considerable attention in the field of photocatalysis owing to its excellent visible light response and photo-generated carriers transport ability. However, pure Bi2MoO6 suffers from the limited surface-active sites and poor photogenerated charge separation efficiency, resulting in unsatisfactory photocatalytic performance. Herein, the 2D/2D Bi2MoO6/BiOBr Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts were synthesized by in-situ hydrothermal growth of Bi2MoO6 on BiOBr. The optimized heterojunction catalyst, Bi2MoO6/BiOBr-40 % exhibited a CH3OH yield of 6.21 μmol·g-1·h-1, which was twice that of the pure Bi2MoO6. Simultaneously, mechanism study by the band potential estimation and electron spin resonance (ESR) analysis evidenced that the enhanced activity was ascribed to the Z-scheme. This unique structure could enhance the spatial separation of electron-hole pairs, remain the strong redox ability. Moreover, the density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out to further expose the charge transfer mechanism of composites. This paper provided a novel approach for the design and manufacture of 2D/2D Z-scheme heterojunctions for energy conversion and environmental remediation.
