A dual-cathode photoelectrocatalysis-electroenzymatic catalysis system by coupling BiVO4 photoanode with hemin/Cu and carbon cloth cathodes for degradation of tetracycline
摘要： When photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) couples with electroenzymatic catalysis (EEC), effective utilization of electrons from PEC process for yield of H2O2 plays an important role in the enzymatic catalysis. In the present work, we designed a novel dual-cathode PEC-EEC system for pollutant removal. In this system, BiVO4 photoanode was prepared by electrodeposition for visible light-driven PEC process while carbon cloth was used as the first cathode for electrogeneration of H2O2 and hemin/Cu prepared by electrophoretic deposition acted as the second cathode for enzymatic catalysis. The performances of the constructed dual-cathode PEC-EEC system were evaluated by decoloring Rhodamine B (RhB), which showed high decoloration percentage with acceptable stability and reusability. Further, the system was applied to degradation of tetracycline (TC), indicating that about 93.6% of TC was removed after 2-h treatment. A pathway for TC degradation in such a dual-cathode PEC-EEC system was proposed based on the intermediates determined by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry in tandem (LC-ESI-MS/MS).

Electrospun nanostructured Co3O4/BiVO4 composite films for photoelectrochemical applications
摘要： Co3O4/BiVO4 (Co/BiV) based nanostructured photoanode films were fabricated by simple facile electrospinning method and were characterized by a variety of techniques. It was found that the films have web-linked structure, composed of BiVO4 and Co3O4 nanostructures. The photoanode was used for the photoelectrochemical (PEC) degradation of bisphenol-A (BPA) by illumination at 0.25 V vs. SCE assisted by 1 mM peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The removal percentage of BPA was enhanced to 96% for the Co/BiV film that was much better than that of BiVO4 film, which was 48%. The pseudo-first kinetic constants were raised from 0.1126 min?1 to 0.4714 min?1, respectively. The enhanced PEC performance of Co/BiV films can be attributed its p-n heterojunction setup and synergetic contribution of PMS, which efficiently inhibits the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. The free radicals quenching experiment and electron spin resonance suggested that the major reactive oxygen species were photogenerated holes, superoxide radicals and sulfate radicals. These findings demonstrate that PMS assisted Co/BiV films, are good candidates for PEC application in environmental purification.

Nanoporous Fe-doped BiVO4 Modified with MIL-53 (Fe) for Enhanced Photoelectrochemical Stability and Water Splitting Perfromances
摘要： Great interest has been attracted to enhancing the photoelectrochemical performances of BiVO4. However, there have rarely been reported about addressing their PEC stability. Herein, it is proposed that Fe ions doping could enhance the stability and PEC performances of BiVO4, which may because it could improve the crystalline structure and eliminates the crystal defects of BiVO4. Moreover, it is found that metal–organic framework can play a co-catalyst role during the PEC experiments. We designed and fabricated nanoporous Fe-doped BiVO4 modified with MIL-53(Fe), which exhibits much higher PEC performance and stability than pristine BiVO4 and Fe-doped BiVO4. It is believed that MIL-53(Fe) can capture the photogenerated holes and thus facilitates the charge separation efficiency.

Novel RGO and concave cube Cu <sub/>2</sub> O co-modified BiVO <sub/>4</sub> nanosheets with enhanced photocatalytic and surface adsorption performances of tetracycline
摘要： A novel ternary Cu2O/BiVO4/RGO photocatalyst is successfully constructed by hydrothermal and evaporation-induced method, and it exhibits superior photocatalytic performance for degradation tetracycline (TC). Meanwhile, the visible light absorption range of composite photocatalyst is effectively broadened by the formation of heterojunction with narrow band gap semiconductor Cu2O. And the separation efficiency of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs is significantly enhanced by the synergistic effect of Cu2O and RGO. More importantly, the adsorption of TC by ternary Cu2O/BiVO4/RGO possesses high adsorption capacity, which is 23.73 times higher than that of pure BiVO4. Additionally, the possible reaction mechanism is clearly revealed by radical trapping experiment, electron spin-resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. This work provides a new insight to design a photocatalyst with excellent adsorption to remove organic contaminants in water.

Dye Mixtures Degradation by Multi-Phase BiVO<sub>4</sub> Photocatalyst
摘要： The objective of this research was to prepare multi–phase bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) powder using the solvothermal method to be used as a photocatalyst. In the preparation step, bismuth nitrate and ammonium vanadate were used as the precursors with a mole ratio of 1:1. The mixed solution was diluted to 0.025 M with acetic acid and heated at 200 oC for 2 h in a Teflon–lined stainless steel autoclave vessel. Multi–phase BiVO4 was obtained without calcination step. Multi–phase BiVO4 was characterized by X–ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The efficiency of multi–phase BiVO4 for photocatalytic degradation of the mixed dye of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB) solution under UV light irradiation was studied. The concentration of the mixed dye solution was measured by UV–Vis spectrophotometry (UV–Vis). The effect of concentration of catalyst and pH of solution was studied. The optimum conditions for photocatalytic degradation of mixed dye solution were obtained at 0.8 g/L for concentration of multi–phase BiVO4 and 7.78 for initial pH of the mixed dye solution.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) PROCEEDINGS OF THE 3RD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON CURRENT PROGRESS IN MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCES 2017 (ISCPMS2017) - Bali, Indonesia (26–27 July 2017)] - Preparation and characterization of TiO2/BiVO4 composite: Can this photocatalyst, under visible light, be able to eliminate rhodamine B from water and why?
摘要： Bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) can be composited with titanium dioxide (TiO2) to obtain a photocatalyst that can be activated by visible light. Such photocatalyst may be operated by solar light, principally, a free photon source. Many researchers have been working hard to find a stable, efficient, and low cost photocatalytic systems. In this presentation, we will report our effort to prepare and characterize TiO2/BiVO4 composite, which is responsive under visible light. The TiO2/BiVO4 composite was prepared by co-precipitation method, in which the self-prepared TiO2 nanotubes was immersed in solution containing bismuth (III) and vanadate ions under certain pH. The freshly obtained TiO2/BiVO4 was dried and subjected to a heat treatment, then was characterized by XRD, UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectrophotometer, SEM, and photo-electro-chemical working station. The results showed a crystal phase mixture of TiO2/BiVO4 composite system, which are anatase (2θ of 27.5°, 36.1°, 54.3°) and monoclinic scheelite, bismuth vanadate (2θ of 19°, 29°). The photocurrent evolution under visible light exposure was investigated carefully. The results showed that the composite system is active under visible light, due to visible light absorption by narrow bandgap semiconductor, namely BiVO4. While the heterojunction system in TiO2/BiVO4 composite enhanced the separation of electron and charge, eventually, the electron would flow from the conduction band of BiVO4 to conduction band of TiO2, so the photocurrent will be enhanced. When this composite was being applied to the photoelectrocatalytic reactor system, containing aqueous rhodamine B, the enhancement of photo-catalytic degradation of rhodamine B was also significantly observed. The influence of bias potential applied during photoelectrocatalytic degradation process will be further discussed.

Lignin-controlled photocatalyst of porous BiVO4-C nanocomposite for enhancing photocatalytic activity toward pollutant under visible-light
摘要： Explorations of biomass materials have emerged as a novel strategy to control the synthesis of semiconductor and improve the photocatalytic performance. Here, a lignin-derived porous structure of BiVO4-C nanocomposite was prepared via one-step hydrothermal approach. In the preparation process, lignin not only effectively controlled the growth of BiVO4 but also carbonized to form a porous structure of biochar-based semiconductor photocatalyst. The studies demonstrated that the BiVO4-C nanocomposite have enhanced photocatalytic activity due to the departure of electron-hole pairs and charge migration. These insights provided useful insight for the design of efficient biomass-based photocatalyst for environmental protection and green energy.

Fe doped ZnO/BiVO4 heterostructure based large area, flexible, high performance broadband photodetector with ultrahigh quantum yield
摘要： Pristine ZnO has been widely explored for UV photodetectors; however it’s utility in broadband photodetectors is still an impediment due to absorbance in UV region only with low quantum efficiency and responsivity that can be accredited to high recombination rate of photo generated charge carriers. To address this issue, we report Fe metal doped 2D ZnO thin films through band gap engineering and 1D electrospun mixed inorganic monoclinic BiVO4 nanofibers heterostructure on ITO coated PET substrate based broadband photodetector (PD) with ultra-high responsivity and EQE values in comparison to PDs fabricated using expensive cleanroom techniques. BiVO4 plays the dual role of captivating photons in the visible and NIR regions and creating local electric fields at the interface of Fe doped ZnO (FZO)-BiVO4 heterostructure which helps in separation of electron-hole pairs. The robustness of the flexible PD was further examined under repeated conditions of bending cycles (upto 500) yielding stable response. The responsivity values obtained for UV, Visible and NIR lights are 7.35 A/W, 3.8 A/W and 0.18 A/W with very high EQE values of 2501.7 %, 851.2 % and 28.3 % respectively. The facile and cost-effective fabrication of the device with high performance gives a new approach for developing flexible electronics and high-performance optoelectronics devices.

Unraveling the impact of the Pd nanoparticle@BiVO <sub/>4</sub> /S-CN heterostructure on the photo-physical & opto-electronic properties for enhanced catalytic activity in water splitting and one-pot three-step tandem reaction
摘要： Pd nanoparticles embedded SBVCN-37 heterostructure photocatalyst is synthesized and employed in the water splitting reaction and for the synthesis of imines via one-pot tandem reaction involving photocatalytic reduction of nitrobenzene, oxidation of benzyl alcohol, followed by condensation reaction between them. Embedded Pd nanoparticles (mean diameter ~ 5-7 nm) act as an electron mediator and enhance the catalytic activity during oxidation and reduction reactions. Experimental results confirm that the light induced holes owing to its favourable redox potential oxidize N2H4 to N2 and liberate H+ ions that subsequently react with photogenerated electrons and facilitate the nitrobenzene reduction. The obtained quantum yield for benzyl alcohol oxidation and nitrobenzene reduction are calculated to be (2.08 %) and (6.53 %) at λ = 420 nm light illumination. The obtained apparent quantum yields for OER and HER are calculated to be 10.22 % and 12.72 % at 420 nm indicating the excellent potentiality of the presently investigated photocatalyst for solar fuel production. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) and time resolved & steady state photoluminescence measurements reveal that an optimum amount of Pd nanoparticles over SBVCN-37 is the crucial factor for achieving the highest photocurrent response, the lowest charge transfer resistance, and the efficient carrier’s mobility alteration leading to a prominent catalytic activity. Further, Mott-Schottky (M-S) analysis confirms that the deposition of Pd nanoparticles effectively reduces the over-potential and fine-tunes the band edge potential required for HER and OER reactions, independently.
