Facile synthesis of a novel full-spectrum-responsive Co2.67S4 nanoparticles for UV-, vis- and NIR-driven photocatalysis
چکیده انگلیسی


- Novel full-spectrum-response Co2.67S4 was fabricated by facile solvothermal route.
- Co2+/Co3+ redox couple was the predominant mechanism in photocatalytic process.
- O2− and OH formed in the photocatalytic process led to the MB degradation.

Sparked by growing pollution issues, research aiming at a better harvesting of solar energy in photocatalysts for environmental remediation has been thriving. In this study, a novel mixed valence state of Co2.67S4 nanoparticles with full-spectrum-responsive photocatalytic activity had been fabricated via a facile solvothermal route. The as-synthesized samples were systematically characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflection spectroscopy (UV-vis-NIR DRS). The photocatalytic performance of as-obtained samples had been investigated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution. The Co2.67S4 nanoparticles with the particle size of 5-20 nm could degrade MB with the efficiency of 64%, 84% and 68% under the UV light, visible light and near-infrared light exposure, respectively. Furthermore, a possible photocatalytic mechanism toward the near-infrared region had been proposed to be that the Co2+/Co3+ redox couple played vital parts in the photocatalytic activity of Co2.67S4. This study provides a novel full solar spectrum-responsive photocatalyst for solar-light utility and environmental remediation.
