What is Visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance of a Z-scheme based TiO2/WO3/g-C3N4 ternary heterojunctions about?
A ternary TiO2/WO3/g-C3N4 (TWG) hybrid photocatalyst was synthesised via pulsed laser ablation in liquids (PLAL) technique. The photocatalyst was characterised using different analytical techniques such as UV–vis spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Photoluminescence, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis. While the TEM analysis revealed the anchoring of TiO2 and WO3-NPs on the g-C3N4 sheet, the crystal structure of the ternary system as observed in the XRD spectra contains the peaks of all the components materials, which indicate effective formation of TiO2/WO3/g-C3N4 nanocomposite. Methylene Blue dye (MB-dye) was employed as a model pollutant to assess the performance of the TiO2/WO3/g-C3N4 nanocomposite in the photocatalytic degradation experiment, under visible light irradiation using a 300 W xenon lamp. The results demonstrated that loading of TiO2/WO3 binary system with x-wt% (x = 5, 10, 15, 20) of g-C3N4, which serves as an interfacial mediator for proper separation and transfer of charges through the formation of heterojunction and Z-scheme with TiO2 and WO3 respectively, excellently enhance
