摘要
A new series of photocatalysts Bi2Zn2/3-xCuxTa4/3O7(Cu-beta-BZT) crystals with pyrochlore structure were synthesized by the method of solid-state reaction (SSR) With small amount of Cu doped (0 01 <= x <= 0 04) the phase structure was kept to be monoclinic pyrochlore as pure beta-BZT The diffuse reflectance spectrum of Cu-beta-BZT samples showed a red shift The method of Cu doping enhanced the photocatalytic activity and when the value of x is 0 03 the sample showed the highest activity which is about 10 times higher than that of pure beta-BZT under UV light Especially the samples of Cu-beta-BZT showed photocatalytic activities under visible light irradiation (lambda > 400 nm) Effects of the Cu doped on the photocatalytic activities of the catalysts were also discussed (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
