Graphitic carbon nitride engineered ?-Fe2O3/rGO heterostructure for visible-light-driven photochemical oxidation of sulfamethoxazole br

Abdul Hannan Asif et al.

Summary: Rational design of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) engineered hematite (Fe2O3)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) photocatalysts has been successfully employed for visible-light-driven photo-Fenton-like degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The optimal photocatalyst showed exceptional performance due to the successful integration of g-C3N4/Fe2O3/rGO, enabling efficient separation and migration of photoinduced charge carriers (e/h+). The study also optimized the photochemical decomposition efficiency by analyzing important reaction parameters such as catalyst loading, H2O2 dosage, pH, and temperature, and proposed a possible mechanism for SMX degradation based on the generation of reactive species and degradation intermediates.

Interlayer Charge Transfer Regulates Single-Atom Catalytic Activity on Electride/Graphene 2D Heterojunctions

Wei Li et al.

Summary: In this study, single-atom catalysis on two-dimensional graphene and electride heterostructures was investigated using first-principles calculations. The electron gas in the electride layer facilitated a significant transfer of electrons to the graphene layer, which could be controlled by the choice of electride. The charge transfer effectively modified the d-orbital electron occupancy of a single metal atom, leading to enhanced catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution and oxygen reduction reactions. The strong correlation between adsorption energy and charge transfer suggested that interfacial charge transfer is a crucial catalytic descriptor for heterostructure-based catalysts. The polynomial regression model demonstrated the importance of charge transfer and accurately predicted the adsorption energy of ions and molecules. This study offers a strategy for obtaining high-efficiency single-atom catalysts using two-dimensional heterostructures.

Jie Liu et al.

Summary: In this paper, ZnIn2S4/TiO2-x (ZIS/TiVo) heterojunction was synthesized by adjusting the ratio of ZIS to TiVo and Vo concentration.

A2V2O7 (A = Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) for CO2 reduction under visible-light irradiation: Effects of A site replacement

Mengyang Du et al.

Summary: In this study, the electronic structure and surface basicity of pyrovanadate materials were regulated by changing the A-site element. The results showed that Ni2V2O7 had the strongest crystal field and the largest splitting of V 3d orbitals, resulting in the highest mobility of photogenerated electrons. Furthermore, the CO2-TPD results revealed that Ni2+ had the strongest surface basicity. Compared to other pyrovanadates, Ni(2)V(2)O(7) exhibited the highest CO yield. Cu2V2O7 was not suitable for CO2 reduction due to its positive conduction band position caused by the splitting of the Cu 3d orbital.
