Ag nanoparticles deposited on oxygen-vacancy-containing BiVO4 for enhanced near-infrared photocatalytic activity

doi:10.1016/S1872-2067(17)62990-5

Abstract

Abstract:

This study investigates the photodegradation of the organic dye rhodamine B by Ag-nanoparticle-containing BiVO₄ catalysts under different irradiation conditions. The catalysts consist of Ag nanoparticles deposited on oxygen-vacancy-containing BiVO₄. The morphology of the BiVO₄ is olive shaped, and it has a uniform size distribution. The BiVO₄ possesses a high oxygen vacancy density, and the resulting Ag nanoparticle-BiVO₄ catalyst exhibits higher photocatalytic activity than BiVO₄. The RhB degradation by the Ag nanoparticle-BiVO₄ catalyst is 99% after 100 min of simulated solar irradiation. BiVO₄ containing oxygen vacancies as a rationally designed support extends the catalyst response into the near-infrared region, and facilitates the trapping and transfer of plasmonic hot electrons. The enhanced photocatalytic efficiency is attributed to charge transfer from the BiVO₄ to Ag nanoparticles, and surface plasmon resonance of the Ag nanoparticles. These insights into electron-hole separation and charge transfer may arouse interest in solar-driven wastewater treatment and water splitting.

Key words: Bismuth vanadate, Oxygen vacancy, Silver nanoparticle, Surface plasmon resonance, Solar-driven
