Abstract

In this paper, BiOI@(BiO)2CO3 facet coupling heterostructures were synthesized via exfoliation and ion exchange, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), photoluminescence (PL) spectra and valence-band XPS spectra. With the reaction time increasing, more BiOI can be transformed to (BiO)2CO3, and BiOI@(BiO)2CO3 facet coupling heterostructures were obtained. The photocatalytic results showed that BiOI@(BiO)2CO3 displays much higher photocatalytic activity than BiOI and (BiO)2CO3 under visible-light. The photocatalytic mechanism study revealed that BiOI@(BiO)2CO3 has strong adsorption for RhB molecules due to the ultrathin nanosheets and higher BET, and displays better separation efficiency of photoinduced charge carriers and higher photocurrent due to the {001}/{001} facet coupling.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
