Ag 2WO 4 nanorods decorated with AgI nanoparticles: Novel and efficient visible-light-driven photocatalysts for the degradation of water pollutants.

Abstract
To develop efficient and stable visible-light-driven (VLD) photocatalysts for pollutant degradation, we synthesized novel heterojunction photocatalysts comprised of AgI nanoparticle-decorated Ag2WO4 nanorods via a facile method. Various characterization techniques, including XRD, SEM, TEM, EDX, and UV-vis DRS were used to investigate the morphology and optical properties of the as-prepared AgI/Ag2WO4 catalyst. With AgI acting as the cocatalyst, the resulting AgI/Ag2WO4 heterostructure shows excellent performance in degrading toxic, stable pollutants such as rhodamine B (RhB), methyl orange (MO) and para-chlorophenol (4-CP). The high performance is attributed to the enhanced visible-light absorption properties and the promoted separation efficiency of charge carriers through the formation of the heterojunction between AgI and Ag2WO4. Additionally, AgI/Ag2WO4 exhibits durable stability. The active species trapping experiment reveals that active species (O2•- and h+) dominantly contribute to RhB degradation. The AgI/Ag2WO4 heterojunction photocatalyst characterized in this work holds great potential for remedying environmental issues due to its simple preparation method and excellent photocatalytic performance.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts have been widely used for photocatalysis, which is a highly important process for energy conversion, owing to their merits such as easy separation of catalysts from the reaction products and applicability to continuous chemical industry and recyclability. Yet, homogenous photocatalysis receives tremendous attention as it can offer a higher activity and selectivity with atomically dispersed catalytic sites and tunable light absorption. For this reason, there is a major trend to combine the advantages of both homogeneous and heterogeneous photocatalysts, in which coordination chemistry plays a role as the bridge. In this article, we aim to provide the first systematic review to give a clear picture of the recent progress from taking advantage of coordination chemistry. We specifically summarize the role of coordination chemistry as a versatile tool to engineer catalytically active sites, tune light harvesting and maneuver charge kinetics in heterogeneous photocatalysis. We then elaborate on the common fundamentals behind various materials systems, together with key spectroscopic characterization techniques and remaining challenges in this field. The typical applications of coordination chemistry in heterogeneous photocatalysis, including proton reduction, water oxidation, carbon dioxide reduction and organic reactions, are highlighted.

Abstract
As the search for efficient catalysts for CO2 photoreduction continues, nanostructured perovskite oxides have emerged as a class of high-performance photocatalytic materials. The perovskite oxide candidates for CO2 photoreduction are primarily nanostructured forms of titanates, niobates, tantalates and cobaltates. These materials form the focus of this review article because they are much sought-after due to their nontoxic nature, adequate chemical stability, and tunable crystal structures, bandgaps and surface energies. As compared to conventional semiconductors and nanomaterial catalysts, nanostructured perovskite oxides also exhibit an extended optical-absorption edge, longer charge carrier lifetimes, and favorable band-alignment with respect to reduction potential of activated CO2 and reduction products of the same. While CO2 reduction product yields of several hundred μmol-1 h-1 are observed with many types of perovskite oxide nanomaterials in stand-alone forms, yield of such quantities are not common with semiconductor nanomaterials of other types. In this review, we present current state-of-the-art synthesis methods to form perovskite oxide nanomaterials, and procedures to engineer their bandgaps. This review also presents a comprehensive summary and discussion on crystal structures, defect distribution, morphologies and electronic properties of the perovskite oxides, and correlation of these properties to CO2 photoreduction performance. This review offers researchers key insights for developing advanced perovskite oxides in order to further improve the yields of CO2 reduction products.

Abstract
Increasing visible light absorption of classic wide-bandgap photocatalysts like TiO2 has long been pursued in order to promote solar energy conversion. Modulating the composition and/or stoichiometry of these photocatalysts is essential to narrow their bandgap for a strong visible-light absorption band. However, the bands obtained so far normally suffer from a low absorbance and/or narrow range. Herein, in contrast to the common tail-like absorption band in hydrogen-free oxygen-deficient TiO2 , an unusual strong absorption band spanning the full spectrum of visible light is achieved in anatase TiO2 by intentionally introducing atomic hydrogen-mediated oxygen vacancies. Combining experimental characterizations with theoretical calculations reveals the excitation of a new subvalence band associated with atomic hydrogen filled oxygen vacancies as the origin of such band, which subsequently leads to active photo-electrochemical water oxidation under visible light. These findings could provide a powerful way of tailoring wide-bandgap semiconductors to fully capture solar light.

Abstract
Visible-light-responsive ternary metal tungstate (MWO4) photocatalysts are being increasingly investigated for energy conversion and environmental purification applications owing to their striking features, including low cost, eco-friendliness, and high stability under acidic and oxidative conditions. However, rapid recombination of photoinduced electron-hole pairs and a narrow light response range to the solar spectrum lead to low photocatalytic activity of MWO4-based materials, thus significantly hampering their wide usage in practice. To enable their widespread practical usage, significant efforts have been devoted, by developing new concepts and innovative strategies. In this review, we aim to provide an integrated overview of the fundamentals and recent progress of MWO4-based photocatalysts. Furthermore, different strategies, including morphological control, surface modification, heteroatom doping, and heterojunction fabrication, which are employed to promote the photocatalytic activities of MWO4-based materials, are systematically summarized and discussed. Finally, existing challenges and a future perspective are also provided to shed light on the development of highly efficient MWO4-based photocatalysts.

Abstract
Herein, we report the performance of CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite quantum dots (QDs) for photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes. The photocatalytic performance of CsPbX3 QDs was characterized by UV-vis absorption spectra and ESI-MS, which evaluated their ability of degrading methyl orange (MO) solution under visible light irradiation. Interestingly, both CsPbCl3 and CsPbBr3 QDs show excellent photocatalytic activities, which can decompose the MO solution into a colorless solution within 100 min. This study demonstrates the potential of CsPbX3 QDs in the degradation of organic dyes and environmentally friendly applications. Moreover, the integration of CsPbX3 QDs and photocatalysis provides a new insight for the design of new photocatalysts.

Abstract
(LaTiO2N)1-x(LaCrO3)x continuous solid solutions with an orthorhombic-phase ABX3 perovskite structure and with varied LaCrO3 contents (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) were synthesized by a polymerized complex method followed by a post-treatment process of nitridation for the first time. Visible-light-driven photocatalytic H2-evolution activities of the solid solutions gradually increased with the increase of x from 0.0 to 0.3, and then sharply decreased with the further increase of x from 0.3 to 1.0. With the increase of x, on the one hand, the narrowed bandgaps of solid solutions would enhance the generation of charge carriers and the increased lattice distortion of solid solutions could promote the separation and migration of charge carriers, thus mainly contributing to the improvement of photocatalytic activities; on the other hand, the lowered CBMs of solid solutions would reduce the driving force for reducing H2O to H2 and the decreased surface areas of solid solutions would weaken the adsorption of reactants and reduce the reactive sites, thereby resulting in the deterioration of photocatalytic activities.

Abstract
Ag0.5 La0.5 TiO3 with an ABO3 perovskite structure was synthesized by a newly developed ion-exchange method. Molten Ag2 SO4 instead of traditional molten AgNO3 was used as Ag+ source in view of its high decomposition temperature (1052 °C), thereby guaranteeing the complete substitution of Ag+ for Na+ in Na0.5 La0.5 TiO3 with a stable ABO3 perovskite structure at a high ion-exchange temperature (700 °C). Under full-arc irradiation, the O2 -evolution activity of Ag0.5 La0.5 TiO3 was about 1.6 times that of Na0.5 La0.5 TiO3 due to the optimized electronic band structures and local lattice structures. On the one hand, the substitution of Ag+ for Na+ elevated the VBM and thus narrowed the band gap from 3.19 to 2.83 eV, thereby extending the light-response range and, accordingly, enhancing the photoexcitation to generate more charge carriers. On the other hand, the substitution of Ag+ for Na+ induced a lattice distortion of the ABO3 perovskite structure, thereby promoting the separation and migration of charge carriers. Moreover, under visible-light irradiation, Ag0.5 La0.5 TiO3 displayed notable O2 evolution whereas Na0.5 La0.5 TiO3 showed little O2 evolution, thus demonstrating that the substitution of Ag+ for Na+ enabled the use of visible light to evolve O2 photocatalytically. This work presents an effective route to explore novel Ag-based photocatalysts.
