Abstract
In this research, the visible light active performance of Bi₂ZnB₂O₇ (BBZO) was significantly enhanced through the formation of a composite with few layer MoS₂. The resultant MoS₂@BBZO catalyst was employed in both photocatalysis and photodetector applications. Comprehensive structural and morphological analyses of the MoS₂@BBZO catalyst were conducted using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The estimated band gaps of BBZO and the composite were found to be 2.8 eV and 1.74 eV, respectively. Rhodamine B degradation studies demonstrated that the catalyst achieved 75% degradation within 30 minutes. Additionally, the photodetector application was investigated, revealing rapid photo-switching capabilities and an increased photocurrent.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to publish papers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature. Here, nanotechnology is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices. It encompasses the understanding of the fundamental physics, chemistry, biology and technology of nanometre-scale objects and how such objects can be used in the areas of computation, sensors, nanostructured materials and nano-biotechnology.
