摘要
BiOBr-g-C3N4 inorganic-organic composite photocatalysts were synthesized by a one-step chemical bath method at low temperature and characterized by X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermo gravimetric (TG), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS). The BiOBr-g-C3N4 composite showed much higher visible-light-driven (VLD) photocatalytic activity than pure g-C3N4 and BiOBr for rhodamine B (RhB) degradation. The photocatalytic mechanism analysis revealed that the interreaction between BiOBr and g-C3N4 is a kind of facet coupling between BiOBr-{0 0 1} and g-C3N4-{0 0 2}. The active species trapping and quantification experiments indicated that the photoinduced charges transfer between these facets resulted in the efficient charge separation.
