ultrathin nanosheet anchored hexahedral prismatic bi2moo6 arrays one step constructed and crystal facet based homojunctions boosting photocatalytic co2 reduction and n2 fixation
Catalysis Science & Technology, 2019Co-Authors: Lu Wang, Yong Zhou, Zong-yan Zhao, Xiaoyong Wang, Wa Gao, Ahmed Alsaedi, Tasawar Hayat, Zhigang ZouAbstract:A fascinating Bi2MoO6 homojunction (HJ) array vertically grown on an FTO substrate was built up through a convenient one-step route; the array consisted of ultrathin nanosheet (NS)-anchored hexahedral prismatic nanorods (NR). HJ exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activities for both CO2 reduction and N2 fixation compared to individual NS or NR arrays. The band alignment of the NS unit with the exposed {010} facets and the NR unit with the exposed {100} facets allowed the photo-generated electrons and holes of HJ to migrate to the NR and NS surfaces selectively, effectively achieving spatial charge separation. In addition, the tight connection between NS and NR provided a convenient and fast channel for Photogenerated Carrier mobility. Meanwhile, the ultrathin thickness of NS enabled the charge Carriers to move rapidly from the bulk onto the surface, and the transverse dimension simultaneously rendered a sufficiently spacious transport channel for charge separation. The one-dimensional NR structure also provided special passages for the directional transmission of electrons. This work may provide some insights for designing vigorous crystal facet-based homojunctions for photocatalysis by manipulating interface interactions.

hexahedron prism anchored octahedronal ceo2 crystal facet based homojunction promoting efficient solar fuel synthesis
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2015Co-Authors: Ping Li, Yong Zhou, Zong-yan Zhao, Xiaoyong Wang, Min Xiao, Qinfeng Xu, Zhigang ZouAbstract:An unprecedented, crystal facet-based CeO2 homojunction consisting of hexahedron prism-anchored octahedron with exposed prism surface of {100} facets and octahedron surface of {111} facets was fabricated through solution-based crystallographic-oriented epitaxial growth. The photocatalysis experiment reveals that growth of the prism arm on octahedron allows to activate inert CeO2 octahedron for an increase in phototocatalytic reduction of CO2 into methane. The pronounced photocatalytic performance is attributed to a synergistic effect of the following three factors: (1) band alignment of the {100} and {111} drives electrons and holes to octahedron and prism surfaces, respectively, aiming to reach the most stable energy configuration and leading to a spatial charge separation for long duration; (2) crystallographic-oriented epitaxial growth of the CeO2 hexahedron prism arm on the octahedron verified by the interfacial lattice fringe provides convenient and fast channels for the Photogenerated Carrier transp...
