研究目的
To construct a solar thermal-promoted photocatalyst, an ultrathin “biphasic” ordered–disordered D-HNb3O8 junction, which performs two disparate spectral selective functions of photoexcitation by ordered structure and thermal activated conversion via disordered lattice for combinatorial photothermal mediated catalysis.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated a facile approach to locally transpire lattice distortion on a crystalline monolayer HNb3O8, hence hybridizing ordered–disordered junction structure on ultrathin nanosheet to fulfill efficient photoredox and photothermic activation at optimal working spectrum. The D-HNb3O8 realizes full solar energy harvesting from 250 to 2500 nm without trading-off its high photocatalytic activity.
研究不足
The study focuses on the specific photocatalyst system of D-HNb3O8 and its application in full solar spectrum harvesting. The limitations include the specific conditions under which the photocatalyst operates and the potential need for optimization in other environmental conditions.
