Abstract

Abstract:

The semimetal Bi has received increasing interest as an alternative to noble metals for use in plas-monic photocatalysis. To enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of metallic Bi, Bi microspheres modi-fied by SiO₂ nanoparticles were fabricated by a facile method. Bi-O-Si bonds were formed between Bi and SiO₂, and acted as a transportation channel for hot electrons. The SiO₂@Bi microspheres exhibited an enhanced plasmon-mediated photocatalytic activity for the removal of NO in air under 280 nm light irradiation, as a result of the enlarged specific surface areas and the promotion of elec-tron transfer via the Bi-O-Si bonds. The reaction mechanism of photocatalytic oxidation of NO by SiO₂@Bi was revealed with electron spin resonance and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy experiments, and involved the chain reaction NO → NO₂ → NO₃^- with ·OH and ·O₂^- radicals as the main reactive species. The present work could provide new insights into the in-depth mechanistic understanding of Bi plasmonic photocatalysis and the design of high-performance Bi-based photocatalysts.

Key words: SiO₂@Bi metal, Bi-O-Si bond, Electron transfer, In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, Photocatalytic nitric oxide removal
