In this study, we aimed to enhance the photocatalytic performance of molybdenum oxide (MoO) thin films by doping with silver (Ag) via a spray pyrolysis technique. The primary objective for silver incorporation was intended to introduce additional energy levels into the band structure of MoO, improving its efficiency. Structural, optical, and photocatalytic properties were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optical spectroscopy.

The photocatalytic activities of molybdenum oxide (MoO), SiO, and MoO@SiO nanoparticles composite have shown a synergistic photocatalytic effect of SiO combined with MoO. The first-order degradation rate constants for MoO, SiO, and MoO@SiO nanocomposite were 10.
