Enhancement of Charge Separation and NIR Light Harvesting through Construction of 2D-2D Bi4 O5 I2 /BiOBr:Yb3+ , Er3+ Z-Scheme Heterojunctions for Improved Full-Spectrum Photocatalytic Performance.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Developing full-spectrum photocatalysts with simultaneous broadband light absorption, excellent charge separation, and high redox capabilities is becoming increasingly significant. Herein, inspired by the similarities in crystalline structures and compositions, a unique 2D-2D Bi4 O5 I2 /BiOBr:Yb3+ ,Er3+ (BI-BYE) Z-scheme heterojunction with upconversion (UC) functionality is successfully designed and fabricated. The co-doped Yb3+ and Er3+ harvest near-infrared (NIR) light and then convert it into visible light via the UC function, expanding the optical response range of the photocatalytic system. The intimate 2D-2D interface contact provides more charge migration channels and enhances the Förster resonant energy t
