Abstract
This work synthesized a novel CuS/KTa0.75Nb0.25O3 (KTN) heterojunction composite and firstly applied it in photocatalytic and piezocatalytic reduction of N2 to NH3. XRD, Raman, XPS, SEM, and TEM analyses indicate that CuS nanoparticles closely adhered to the surface of KTN nanorods, which facilitates the migration of electrons between the two semiconductors. Mott-Schottky and valence band XPS analysis shows that KNbO3 shows a higher conduction band than CuS, indicating that CuS mainly acts as electron trappers to capture the photogenerated electrons from KTN. Because of the great enhanced spatial separation of photogenerated charge carriers, the CuS/KTN presents much higher performance than pure KNT, which is further confirmed by 1H NMR analysis of the reaction solution. An interesting finding is that synthesized CuS/KTN not only performs well under light irradiation but also can work in an ultrasonic bath, indicating its great potential in photo/piezocatalytic conversion of N2 to NH3. The optimal 10 %CuS/KTN shows an NH3 production rate of 36.2 μmol L-1 g-1 h-1 under ultrasonic vibration, which reaches 7.4 times that of KTN. The electrons generated by KTN through the piezoelectric effect can be captured by CuS, which endows the electrons a longer life to participate in the reaction, thereby improving the catalytic reaction performance.

Abstract
A plasmonic photocatalyst of AgBr/BiPO4/g-C3N4 was prepared. X-ray powder diffraction, Scanning electron microscope, Transmission electron microscopy, Fourier infrared spectroscopy, Ultraviolet Visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and photoluminescence emission spectra have been employed to determine the structure, morphology and optical property of the as-prepared AgBr/BiPO4/g-C3N4 composite and analysis the reasons for improving photocatalytic efficiency. The optimal doping ratio of AgBr was 10 wt% by degrading 20 mg/L of Reactive Blue 19 (RB19) under visible light (λ > 420 nm), and 10 wt%AgBr/BiPO4/g-C3N4 degraded 20 mg/L of RB19 to 2.59% at 40 min, which is ascribed to synergistic effects at the interface of AgBr, BiPO4 and g-C3N4. The effect of catalyst dosage, initial concentration and initial pH of RB19 solution on photocatalytic efficiency was investigated. Four cycles of experiments were conducted. Finally, through the trapping experiment, we found that the main active factor for degrading RB19 in the photocatalytic process is O2-. The possible photocatalytic mechanism of AgBr/BiPO4/g-C3N4 was discussed in connection with the synergistic effect of Ag and active substances at the AgBr/BiPO4/g-C3N4 interface.

Abstract
In the practical process of photocatalytic H2 evolution, optimizing the ability of light absorption and charge spatial separation is the top priority for improving the photocatalytic performance. In this study, we elaborately engineer neoteric g-C3N4 nanotube@polydopamine(pDA)/NiCo-LDH (LPC) composite photocatalyst by combining hydrothermal and calcination method. In the LPC composite system, the one-dimensional (1D) g-C3N4 nanotubes with larger specific surface area can afford more active sites and conduce to shorten the charge migration distance, as well as the high-speed mass transfer in the nanotube can accelerate the reaction course. The g-C3N4/NiCo-LDH type-II heterojunction can efficaciously stimulate the spatial separation of photo-produced charge. In addition, pDA as heterojunction metal-free interface mediums can provide multiple action (π-π* electron delocalization effect, adhesive action and photosensitization). The optimized LPC nanocomposite displays about 3.3-fold high photoactivity for H2 evolution compared with the g-C3N4 nanotube under solar light irradiation. In addition, the cycle experiment result shows that the LPC composite photocatalyst possesses superior stability and recyclability. The resultant g-C3N4@pDA/NiCo-LDH composite photocatalyst displays the potential practical application in the field of energy conversion.

Abstract
Highly ordered mesocrystalline semiconductors often indicate tremendous prospects in the clean energy production and environmental photocatalysis mainly because of their unique superstructure for efficient charge transport pathways and long-lived charges. Here, superstructure Ta3N5 mesocrystals with the high-energy surface {2 0 0} planes exposed were the first time to be successfully fabricated by topological transformation of Ta2O5 mesocrystals. The prepared Ta3N5 mesocrystals showed enhanced visible-light photocatalytic hydrogen production activity of 98.67 μmol g-1 for 180 min irradiation, which was approximately 5.28 times that of comm-Ta3N5 prepared with commercial Ta2O5 as the starting material, mainly due to the formation of long-distance electron conduction pathways and long-lived charges. The detailed electronic band structures of the prepared Ta3N5 mesocrystals were also investigated by electrochemical method. Finally, possible visible-light photocatalytic mechanisms of Ta3N5 mesocrystals for enhanced hydrogen production was also proposed in detail. Current work also indicates that tantalum-based mesocrystals show great potential to enhance the charge separation for efficient photocatalytic water splitting.

Abstract
Photocatalysts based on zinc hydroxide and a solid solution of CdS and ZnS were prepared via the precipitation method and used for photocatalytic hydrogen production from aqueous solutions of inorganic (Na2S/Na2SO3) and organic (ethanol) sacrificial agents. The photocatalysts were tested in cyclic experiments for hydrogen evolution and studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. Different transformations of the β-Zn(OH)2 co-catalyst were observed in the presence of inorganic and organic sacrificial agents; namely, ZnS was formed in Na2S/Na2SO3 solution, whereas the formation of ε-Zn(OH)2 was detected in solution with ethanol. The composite Zn(OH)2/Cd1−xZnxS photocatalysts have great potential in various photocatalysis processes (e.g., hydrogen production, CO2 reduction, and the oxidation of organic contaminants) under visible light. The nature of the sacrificial agent affects the transformations of a Zn(OH)2 co-catalyst during photocatalytic hydrogen production.![]()

Abstract
Well-organized TiO2 nanorod arrays (TNRs) have increasingly attracted our attention in recent years due to their excellent photocatalytic properties. However, it is of great importance to prepare more efficient photocatalysts using a facile method towards their more widespread use. In this work, K6SiW11O39Co(ii)(H2O) (SiW11Co) and Ag nanoparticles were introduced into TNRs using spin-coating and chemical bath deposition methods. It was found that TNRs/SiW11Co/Ag composite films with an active area of only 1 cm2 exhibit highly efficient and sustainable properties for the photodegradation of NO2 and display a significant enhancement compared with P25 and pure TNRs. Photocatalytic measurements demonstrated that both SiW11Co and Ag synergistically improve the light absorption and charge separation efficiency, thus obtaining the most efficient photocatalytic performance. In addition, the probable photocatalytic mechanism and the dominating active species for NO2 photodegradation were also proposed, in order to testify the effectively enhanced photocatalytic ability of the TNRs/SiW11Co/Ag composite. Hence, the design of these polyoxometalate and metal particle co-modified TNRs may provide a new tactic for developing promising materials for photocatalytic degradation.
