Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are essential to photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics in water. In this work, we prepared AgPO/Bi@BiTiO by simple in-situ reduction method and precipitation method, which improves the ability to capture visible light and increases the activity of photoinduced molecular oxygen activation, resulting in reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide radicals (•O), hydroxyl radicals (•OH), and HO. The excellent TC degradation efficiency derive from the SPR effect of the metal Bi on the surface enhances the light absorption intensity, and development of a Z-scheme heterojunction between AgPO and BiTiO promotes the activation of molecular oxygen. A possible photodegradation mechanism of the as-prepared photocatalyst was proposed. This work provides an insight perspective to the synthesis photocatalysts with molecular oxygen activation for environmental remediation.
