One-Step Synthesis of AgO/FeO Magnetic Photocatalyst for Efficient Organic Pollutant Removal via Wide-Spectral-Response Photocatalysis-Fenton Coupling.

Photocatalysis holds great promise for addressing water pollution caused by organic dyes, and the development of AgO/FeO aims to overcome the challenges of slow degradation efficiency and difficult recovery of photocatalysts. In this study, we present a novel, environmentally friendly AgO/FeO magnetic nanocomposite synthesized via a simple coprecipitation method, which not only constructs a type II heterojunction but also successfully couples photocatalysis and Fenton reaction, enhancing the broad-spectrum response and efficiency. The AgO/FeO (10%) nanocomposite demonstrates exceptional degradation performance toward organic dyes, achieving 99.

A Novel Non-Metallic Photocatalyst: Phosphorus-Doped Sulfur Quantum Dots.

In this paper, a novel phosphorus-doped sulfur quantum dots (P-SQDs) material was prepared using a simple hydrothermal method. P-SQDs have a narrow particle size distribution as well as an excellent electron transfer rate and optical properties. Compositing P-SQDs with graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) can be used for photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes under visible light.
