Abstract
The development of an efficient photocatalyst with superior activity under visible light has been regarded as a significant strategy for pollutant degradation and environmental remediation. Herein, a series of WO3/Ag2CO3 mixed photocatalysts with different proportions were prepared by a simple mixing method and characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, and DRS techniques. The photocatalytic performance of the WO3/Ag2CO3 mixed photocatalyst was investigated by the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation (λ > 400 nm). The photocatalytic efficiency of the mixed WO3/Ag2CO3 photocatalyst was rapidly increased with the proportion of Ag2CO3 up to 5%. The degradation percentage of RhB by WO3/Ag2CO3-5% reached 99.7% within 8 min. The pseudo-first-order reaction rate constant of WO3/Ag2CO3-5% (0.9591 min-1) was 118- and 14-fold higher than those of WO3 (0.0081 min-1) and Ag2CO3 (0.0663 min-1). The catalytic activities of the mixed photocatalysts are not only higher than those of the WO3 and Ag2CO3 but also higher than that of the WO3/Ag2CO3 composite prepared by the precipitation method. The activity enhancement may be because of the easier separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. The photocatalytic mechanism was investigated by free radical capture performance and fluorescence measurement. It was found that light-induced holes (h+) was the major active species and superoxide radicals (·O2 -) also played a certain role in photocatalytic degradation of RhB.

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.
