The donor–acceptor (D-A) pairs in molecules facilitated the intermolecular charge transfer (ICT), thereby amplifying near-infrared (NIR) absorbance and promoting nonradiative heat generation.

The photocatalysts were assessed for their efficacy in degrading Bisphenol-A under visible light (40 W, 3000 lm, and λ = 400–700 nm, with two maximum peaks at 450 and 545 nm). Optical, morphological, and structural characterization were conducted. TiO<sub>2</sub> doped with 1 % Cr exhibited a remarkable 99 % reduction in BPA degradation within 4 h, compared to the 51.5 % degradation observed with bare TiO<sub>2</sub>. This enhancement can be attributed to synergistic effects arising from increased surface area, reduced particle size, and the semi-spherical, uniform morphology of the nanoparticles. Photoluminescence analysis revealed that Cr ion incorporation slowed the recombination processes between photogenerated electron/hole pairs. XPS and Eg data facilitated the calculation of VB and CB values, indicating that the photocatalysts predominantly oxidize the BPA molecule through superoxide (<span><math><mrow><msubsup><mi>O</mi><mrow><mn>2</mn></mrow><mrow><mo>∙</mo><mo>-</mo></mrow></msubsup></mrow></math></span>) and hydroxyl (<span><math><mrow><msup><mrow><mi>HO</mi></mrow><mo>∙</mo></msup></mrow></math></span>) radicals.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16782,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology A-chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142441359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
