Fabrication of a β-Bi2O3/BiOI heterojunction and its efficient photocatalysis for organic dye removal

Abstract

Abstract:

To improve β-Bi₂O₃ photocatalysis, we couple β-Bi₂O₃ with BiOI to form β-Bi₂O₃/BiOI heterojunctions through an in-situ treatment with hydriodic acid. The prepared heterojunctions are characterized with X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ultra violet-diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Upon visible-light irradiation (λ > 420 nm), the β-Bi₂O₃/BiOI heterojunctions, especially with the molar ratio of HI to β-Bi₂O₃ at 0.4, exhibit much higher photocatalytic activity than pure β-Bi₂O₃ and BiOI for the degradation of methyl orange. The efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs across the interface of the heterojunction between β-Bi₂O₃ and BiOI would be responsible for the enhanced photocatalytic performances.

Key words: Photocatalysis, Heterojunction, Bismuth trioxide, Bismuth oxyiodide, Methyl orange
