Abstract
Studies on photocatalytic materials frequently focus on two pivotal metrics: the generation and separation capabilities of photoinduced charge carriers. In this context, we developed a diverse range of BiOBrxI1-x solid solutions (x = 1, 0.75, 0.50, 0.25, 0) via a simple room-temperature synthesis. The BiOBr0.75I0.25 solid solution demonstrated a remarkable degradation ability (up to 88.4 %) for tetracycline (TC) within a span of 60 min under visible light. This efficiency was attributed to enhanced light absorption within the visible region and improved segregation of photoinduced charges. A systematic study was performed to determine the influence factors of the degradation efficiency and the roles of different reactive species. A comprehensive photocatalytic mechanism was proposed on the basis of the results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Finally, theoretical calculations were integrated with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) results to propose a degradation pathway for BiOBr0.75I0.25.
期刊介绍:
Materials Research Bulletin is an international journal reporting high-impact research on processing-structure-property relationships in functional materials and nanomaterials with interesting electronic, magnetic, optical, thermal, mechanical or catalytic properties. Papers purely on thermodynamics or theoretical calculations (e.g., density functional theory) do not fall within the scope of the journal unless they also demonstrate a clear link to physical properties. Topics covered include functional materials (e.g., dielectrics, pyroelectrics, piezoelectrics, ferroelectrics, relaxors, thermoelectrics, etc.); electrochemistry and solid-state ionics (e.g., photovoltaics, batteries, sensors, and fuel cells); nanomaterials, graphene, and nanocomposites; luminescence and photocatalysis; crystal-structure and defect-structure analysis; novel electronics; non-crystalline solids; flexible electronics; protein-material interactions; and polymeric ion-exchange membranes.
