Abstract

In the practical applications of photocatalysis, novel organic-inorganic composite photocatalyst offers new opportunities. Here, novel visible light-induced organic-inorganic composite photocatalyst based on carbon nitride intercalation compound (CNIC) composite photocatalyst was synthesized. The photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The photocatalytic oxidation ability of the novel composite photocatalyst was evaluated by the photocatalytic activity in photoreduction of CO2. Due to enhancement of photo-generated electron–hole separations at the interface, the as-prepared composite photocatalyst exhibits an improved photocatalytic activity.
