Carbon Quantum Dots-Modified Z-scheme Bi12O17Cl2/NiAl-LDH for Significantly Boosting Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction.
Social Science Research Network(2022)
Abstract
Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to high-energy products is an effective way to utilize solar energy and mitigate the greenhouse effect. In this paper, a series of CQDs/Bi12O17Cl2/NiAl-LDH (C/BOC/LDH) photo-catalysts were prepared via a one-pot hydrothermal method, demonstrated excellent photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance. In the case of only water without any photosensitizer and sacrificial agent, the CO production rate on C/0.3BOC/LDH reached 16.4 mu mol.g(-1)h(-1), which is 6.7 times higher than that of the original LDH. The construction of Z-scheme heterojunctions inhibited the recombination of electrons with holes. The unique up-conversion PL behavior of CQDs benefitted the absorption of energy in the NIR by the photocatalyst. This study provides meaningful assistance for the design and construction of a ternary photocatalytic system with Z-scheme heterojunction and carbon-based co-catalyst. (c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
