Facile Hydrothermal Synthesis of Z-Scheme Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 Heterojunction Photocatalyst with Enhanced Visible Light Photocatalytic Activity.
Translate Article 
An efficient binary Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 Z-scheme heterojunction was fabricated through a facile hydrothermal route. The obtained Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 displays high catalytic activity for rhodamine B (RhB) photodegradation, and 100% of RhB was photodegraded by Bi2Fe4O9 (7%)/Bi2WO6 within 90 min, which is much better than that by pure Bi2Fe4O9 and Bi2WO6. The effective photoinduced carrier separation, the broadened photoabsorption range, high oxidation capacity of hole, and the high reduction power of electron are in charge of the elevated catalytic activity because of the formed Z-scheme system. In addition, the effects such as pollutant concentration, pH, inorganic anions, and water sources exerted on photocatalytic performance were also investigated, and the results suggest that Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 still possesses a high photocatalytic performance. The free-radical trapping experiments and electron spin resonance spin-trapping technology disclose that hole (h+), hydroxy radical (•OH), and superoxide radical (•O2-) are cardinal active radicals in the catalytic system. In terms of the above experimental analysis, a possible photodegradation mechanism of the as-fabricated photocatalyst is thoroughly elucidated. In addition, the possible RhB photodegradation pathway is also raised in the light of the analysis of liquid chromatography-mass/mass spectrometry. In addition, Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 composite does not display dramatic reduction of the catalytic performance after five recycles. Thus, this study reveals that the as-obtained Bi2Fe4O9/Bi2WO6 catalyst has a great prospect for the environmental purification.

The metal‐doping of Bi‐based oxide photocatalysts to enhance the photocatalytic performance has been a research hotspot in recent years, but the research on the mechanism of doping‐induced photoactivity improvement is still incomplete. To illustrate the mechanism completely and clearly, Fe‐doped Bi2WO6, as an example, was synthesized by a facile hydrothermal route. Fe‐doped Bi2WO6 exhibits a much higher photoactivity than pure Bi2WO6 in the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) and salicylic acid (SA). By replacing W6+, the Fe3+ doping narrows the energy band gap and generates many oxygen vacancies, which can increase the adsorption of both RhB and SA, and the introduced defect and Fe‐doping energy levels in the band gap of Bi2WO6 increase the separation efficiency of photoinduced charge carriers significantly. These lead to the considerable photoactivity enhancement of Fe‐doped Bi2WO6. The photoactivity of Fe‐doped Bi2WO6 is stable and superior to that of most reported modified Bi2WO6 photocatalysts. This work illustrates in detail the mechanism for the photoactivity improvement of Fe‐doped Bi2WO6, which benefits the research of other metal‐doped photocatalysts.
