One step synthesis of Ag/Ag3PO4/BiPO4 double-heterostructured nanocomposites with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity and stability
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Heterogeneous Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /BiPO 4 photocatalyst was synthesized by a one-step low temperature chemical bath method and exhibited better photocatalytic activity and better stability than those of individual Ag 3 PO 4 or BiPO 4 nanoparticles for photodegradation of organic compounds (Rhodamine B) in the absence of electron accepters under visible light ( λ >420 nm). The enhanced photocatalytic performance is mainly ascribed to the strong visible-light absorption originating from high efficient separations of photogenerated electron–hole pairs through Ag 3 PO 4 /BiPO 4 and Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 heterostructures.
