Towards molecular understanding of surface and interface catalytic engineering in TiO/TiOF nanosheets photocatalytic antibacterial under visible light irradiation.

TiO/TiOF Z-scheme nanosheets have been successfully synthesized for photocatalytic antibacterial. The antibacterial efficiency of TiO/TiOF against E. coli and S.

Principle of CoS/ZnInS heterostructure effect and its mechanism of action in a visible light-catalyzed antibacterial process.

The development of visible-light-driven catalytic antimicrobial technology is a significant challenge. In this study, heterojunctions were constructed for the appropriate modification of semiconductor-based photocatalysts. A simple hydrothermal method was used for material reconstruction, and smaller CoS nanoparticles were deposited and in situ grown on two-dimensional nanoflower-like ZnInS carriers to form CoS/ZnInS (CS/ZIS) Schottky heterojunctions.

Mechanism analysis of surface structure-regulated CuO in photocatalytic antibacterial process.

The effects of exposing crystal planes and vacancy defect engineering can induce unique surface atom arrangements that strongly influence the physicochemical properties of semiconductor materials. This paper used CuO with different surface structures as a research model. A liquid-phase method was chosen for surface structure regulation to prepare CuO semiconductors (Vo-(111)CuO, Vo-(100)CuO, Vo-(110)CuO) with different exposed crystalline surfaces analyze the antibacterial mechanisms of other faceted models in the photodynamic antibacterial process.
