MOF-on-MOF-Derived Hollow Co₃ O₄ /In₂ O₃ Nanostructure for Efficient Photocatalytic CO₂ Reduction.

ABSTRACT: The photocatalytic transformation of carbon dioxide (CO₂ ) into carbon-based fuels or chemicals using sustainable solar energy is considered an ideal strategy for simultaneously alleviating the energy shortage and environmental crises. However, owing to the low energy utilization of sunlight and inferior catalytic activity, the conversion efficiency of CO₂ photoreduction is far from satisfactory. In this study, a MOF-derived hollow bimetallic oxide nanomaterial is prepared for the efficient photoreduction of CO₂ . First, a unique ZIF-67-on-InOF-1 heterostructure is successfully obtained by growing a secondary Co-based ZIF-67 onto the initial InOF-1 nanorods. The corresponding hollow counterpart has a larger specific surface area after acid etching, and the
