摘要
动态 p-n 结可以驱动电子从 p 型向 n 型漂移,同时驱动空穴向相反的方向漂移,这为下一代先进光催化剂的开发提供了广阔的前景。然而,构建动态 p-n 结仍然具有挑战性。本文通过杂化两种 n 型半导体(掺杂锌的 TiO2 和掺杂 P 的 C3N4),构建了原子尺度的动态 p-n 结。催化剂(Z0.01T/CNP-4)对盐酸四环素(TCH)具有稳定而显著的光氧化能力,其时空产率远高于之前的报道。最重要的是,-O2- 物种与通过原子级 p-n 结快速分离的光生电子发生反应,生成 H2O2,进一步促进了 TCH 光氧化过程。这些发现为制造更新型的动态 p-n 结提供了新的线索,从而有效利用光产生的电子和空穴,充分发挥光催化反应的潜力。
Construction of dynamic p-n junctions at atomic-scale for unanticipated photocatalytic oxidation activity
Dynamic p-n junction can drive a drift of electrons from p-type to n-type side, and that of holes in the opposite direction simultaneously, which offers a promising avenue for next generation of advanced photocatalysts. However, construction of dynamic p-n junctions still remains challenging. Herein, dynamic p-n junctions at atomic-scale are constructed by hybridizing two n-type semiconductors, Zn-doped TiO2 and P-doped C3N4. The catalyst (Z0.01T/CNP-4) gives a stable and remarkable photo-oxidation ability for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH), giving a much higher space-time yield than previously reported. h+, •O2−, and •OH radicals are main active species for the TCH photo-oxidation. Most importantly, •O2− species react with photo-generated electrons rapidly separated via atomic-level p-n junctions to yield H2O2 that further promotes the TCH photo-oxidation process. These findings provide new hints in fabricating more novel dynamic p-n junctions for effectively utilizing both photo-generated electrons and holes in the meanwhile to achieve the full potential of photocatalytic reactions.
