Controllable self-assembly of a novel Bi2MoO6-based hybrid photocatalyst: excellent photocatalytic activity under UV, visible and near-infrared irradiation

Abstract

Herein, using a simple one-step method, a Bi2MoO6-based photocatalyst with novel ultrathin nanohollow structure and simultaneous sub-10 nm Bi nanoparticles and sub-1 nm graphitic nitrogen-doped carbon nanodot (NCD) modification were successfully obtained. The coordination impact of the novel structure, SPR effect of Bi nanoparticles, up-conversion performance of graphitic NCDs and cooperative electronic capture properties of Bi metal and NCDs make the hybrid simultaneously exhibit fast charge separation and broad spectrum photocatalytic activity under UV, visible and near-infrared irradiation, leading to excellent photooxidation and photoreduction performance.
