What is An Efficient Bicomponent TiO~2~/SnO~2~ Nanofiber Photocatalyst Fabricated by Electrospinning with a Side-by-Side Dual Spinneret Method about?

In this communication, we demonstrate that the electrospinning process with a side-by-side dual spinneret can be a simple approach for fabricating bicomponent TiO 2 /SnO 2 nanofibers with controllable heterojunctions. Specifically, both of the TiO 2 and SnO 2 components in the nanofibers are fully exposed to the surface. This morphology fully utilized the photogenerated holes and electrons during the photocatalytic process, thus leading to a high photocatalytic activity. We believe that this versatile approach can be extended to fabricate other novel high-efficiency bicomponent photocatalysts.
