Abstract
Plasmonic photocatalysis has been limited by the high cost and scalability of plasmonic materials, such as Ag and Au. By focusing on earth-abundant photocatalyst/plasmonic materials (HxMoO3) and Pd as a catalyst, we addressed these challenges by developing a solventless mechanochemical synthesis of Pd/HxMoO3 and optimizing photocatalytic activities in the visible range. We investigated the effect of HxMoO3 band gap excitation (at 427 nm), Pd interband transitions (at 427 nm), and HxMoO3 localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) excitation (at 640 nm) over photocatalytic activities toward the hydrogen evolution and phenylacetylene hydrogenation as model reactions. Although both excitation wavelengths led to comparable photoenhancements, a 110% increase was achieved under dual excitation conditions (427 + 640 nm). This was assigned to a synergistic effect of optical excitations that optimized the generation of energetic electrons at the catalytic sites. These results are important for the development of visible-light photocatalysts based on earth-abundant components.

Abstract
Recently, two-dimensional (2D) materials and their heterostructures have attracted considerable attention in gas sensing applications. In this work, we synthesized 2D MoS2@MoO3 heterostructures through post-sulfurization of α-MoO3 nanoribbons grown via vapor phase transport (VPT) and demonstrated highly sensitive NO2 gas sensors based on the hybrid heterostructures. The morphological, structural, and compositional properties of the MoS2@MoO3 hybrids were studied by a combination of advanced characterization techniques revealing a core-shell structure with the coexistence of 2H-MoS2 multilayers and intermediate molybdenum oxysulfides on the surface of α-MoO3. The MoS2@MoO3 hybrids also exhibit room-temperature ferromagnetism, revealed by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), as a result of the sulfurization process. The MoS2@MoO3 gas sensors display a p-type-like response towards NO2 with a detection limit of 0.15 ppm at a working temperature of 125 °C, as well as superb selectivity and reversibility. This p-type-like sensing behavior is attributed to the heterointerface of MoS2-MoO3 where interfacial charge transfer leads to a p-type inversion layer in MoS2, and is enhanced by magnetic dipole interactions between the paramagnetic NO2 and the ferromagnetic sensing layer. Our study demonstrates the promising application of 2D molybdenum hybrid compounds in gas sensing applications with a unique combination of electronic and magnetic properties.

Abstract
Water pollution by organic dyes poses great challenge to the environment and living organism. Hence effective removal of organic dyes by cost effective methods have received significant attention in recent years. Herein, we report the complete removal of organic dyes (rhodamine B), methylene blue) and eosin yellow) from water via effective adsorption by MoO3 catalyst. Hydrothermally synthesised MoO2 (1) and amorphous MoSx (2) using ammonium molybdate without and with thiourea exhibited low dye adsorption. In contrast, crystalline micro/nanoplates of MoO3 (3 and 4) obtained from calcination of 1 and 2 showed highly enhanced dye adsorption. Particularly 4 showed higher dye adsorption compared to 3. UV-Visible absorption studies confirmed complete removal of organic dyes upon stirring with MoO3 catalyst. Dye removal studies further revealed that cationic dyes are adsorbed faster than anionic dye that could be attributed to the surface charge of MoO3. Interestingly, the adsorbed dyes were not released from MoO3 for more than 50 days. The exhausted MoO3 catalyst can be recovered by annealing at 400 °C. MoO3 catalyst has also been used as packing materials in dropper column and demonstrated effective removal of dyes by passing through dyes separately as well as mixture.

Abstract
The molybdenum oxide (MoO3) and MoO3@SiO2 nanoparticles were successfully prepared using the chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. The photocatalytic activities of molybdenum oxide (MoO3), SiO2, and MoO3@SiO2 nanoparticles composite have shown a synergistic photocatalytic effect of SiO2 combined with MoO3. The first-order degradation rate constants for MoO3, SiO2, and MoO3@SiO2 nanocomposite were 10.3 × 10−3 min−1, 15.1 × 10−3 min−1, and 16.3 × 10−3 min−1, respectively. The MoO3@SiO2 composite showed degradation efficiencies in the methylene blue solution close to 100% after 60 min of UV irradiation. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the MoO3 powder has a hexagonal crystal structure and the silica is the tridymite type of SiO2. The crystallite size was about 94 nm, 32 nm, and 125 nm for MoO3, silica, and MoO3@SiO2, respectively, as calculated by the Scherrer equation. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the MoO3 powder consisted of a uniform hexagonal structure; the silica showed a rod-like micro-flake morphology and the MoO3@SiO2 composite had the appearance of coral-like structures.

Abstract
Large-sized α-MoO3 elongated nano-plates were synthesized by the introduction of multi-amines such as ethylene di-amine and diethylene tri-amine (DETA) in the conventional hydrothermal reaction. DETA made large hexagonal rods with an h-MoO3 intermediate phase containing H2O, NH4OH, and DETA ions. During the hydrothermal reaction, the hexagonal rods were transformed to elongated α-MoO3 nano-plates by the re-dissolution of h-MoO3 and re-growth to α-MoO3 because DETA retarded the preferred growth reaction of the MoO6 octahedra to the [001] direction and helped the MoO6 octahedra to grow in the [100] direction. In addition, DETA promoted α-MoO3 nano-belts to be assembled into elongated nano-plates by oriented attachment because the multi-ammonium groups in the DETA backbone could adhere to the α-MoO3 nano-belts due to attractive Coulomb interactions.

Abstract
Molybdenum oxide (MoO3) and Fe,Co-codoped MoO3 thin films obtained by spray pyrolysis have been in-depth investigated to understand the effect of Co and Fe codoping on MoO3 thin films. The effect of Fe and Co on the structural, morphological and optical properties of MoO3 thin films have been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), optical and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, and electropyroelectric methods. The XRD patterns demonstrated the formation of orthorhombic α-MoO3 by spray pyrolysis. SEM characterization has shown an increase in roughness of MoO3 thin films by Fe and Co doping. Optical reflectance and transmittance measurements have shown an increase in optical band gap with the increase in Fe and Co contents. Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of Fe,Co-doped MoO3 were 24.10–25.86 Wm−1K−1 and 3.80 × 10−6–5.15 × 10−6 m2s−1, respectively. MoO3 thin films have shown PL emission. Doping MoO3 with Fe and Co increases emission in the visible range due to an increase number of chemisorbed oxygen atoms. The photodegradation of an aqueous solution of methylene blue (MB) depended on the content of the codoping elements (Fe,Co). The results showed that a degradation efficiency of 90% was observed after 60 min for MoO3: Fe 2%-Co 1%, while the degradation efficiency was about 35% for the undoped MoO3 thin film.

Abstract
A hybrid nanosystem with impeccable cellular imaging and antioxidant functionality is demonstrated. The microwave irradiation-derived molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles (MoO3 NPs) were surface-functionalized with the cationic dye molecule, methylene blue (MB), which enables superior UV-visible absorbance and fluorescence emission wavelengths potential for bioimaging. The radical scavenging property of the pristine MoO3 NPs and MoO3-MB NPs were studied in vivo using Caenorhabditis elegans as the model system. Heat shock-induced oxidative stress in C. elegans was significantly resolved by the MoO3-MB NPs, in agreement with the in vitro radical scavenging study by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Hybrid nanostructures of MoO3-MB demonstrate synergistic benefits in intracellular imaging with intrinsic biocompatibility and antioxidant behavior, which can facilitate application as advanced healthcare materials toward bioimaging and clinical therapeutics.

Abstract
A novel two-dimensional hybrid polymer photocatalyst black-MoO3/polyimide was synthesized by one-pot thermopolymerization of monomers, ammonium molybdate, and thiourea at mild temperatures. Thiourea and ammonium molybdate as fluxing agents promote the formation of black molybdenum oxide (BMO) on polyimide (PI) and enhance the crystallinity of PI. It is confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance, and Fourier transform infrared that the strong interaction between BMO and PI leads to the formation of a Mo-N coordination bond through the coordination of N atoms of heptazine units to the unsaturated Mo atoms of BMO and results in a large number of Mo5+ cations in BMO/PI. UV-vis and photoluminescence reveal that the visible light absorption of BMO/PI was increased and the separation efficiency of photogenerated electron/hole obviously was significantly enhanced, which facilitates the improvement of the photocatalytic activity of BMO/PI. This work provides a new approach to synthesizing efficient inorganic-organic hybrid semiconductor photocatalysts.

Abstract
MoO3 nanostructures have been grown in thin film form on five different substrates by RF magnetron sputtering and subsequent annealing; non-aligned nanorods, aligned nanorods, bundled nanowires, vertical nanorods and nanoslabs are formed respectively on the glass, quartz, wafer, alumina and sapphire substrates. The nanostructures formed on these substrates are characterized by AFM, SEM, GIXRD, XPS, micro-Raman, diffuse reflectance and photoluminescence spectroscopy. A detailed growth model for morphology alteration with respect to substrates has been discussed by considering various aspects such as surface roughness, lattice parameters and the thermal expansion coefficient, of both substrates and MoO3. The present study developed a strategy for the choice of substrates to materialize different types MoO3 nanostructures for future thin film applications. The gas sensing tests point towards using these MoO3 nanostructures as principal detection elements in gas sensors.

Abstract
In this work, the thermal stabilities of a series of polyethylene glycols (PEG 4000, 6000 and 10000) were investigated after compositing with different kinds of inorganic salts, such as ammonium molybdate tetrahydrate (AMT), NH4VO3, (NH4)2SO4, NH4NO3, Na2SO4, Na2MoO4. It was first observed that all the ammonium salts exerted leveling effects for the thermal stabilities of the PEGs. In other words, the presence of the ammonium salts caused the occurrence of the maximum decomposition rates of the PEGs with the same repeat sequence but different chain lengths at almost the same temperatures. Leveling effects were defined by three parameters: leveling spans, leveling degrees and dispersion degrees of leveling. Further experiments revealed that leveling effects also occur in similar types of polymers: polypropylene glycols (PPG 2000, 3000 and 4000). A series of independent experiments including Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, time-of-flight mass spectrometry, conductivity and field-emission scanning electron microscopy were performed to explore the origin of leveling effects. We consider that the interaction between inorganic ions and polymer molecules and the Hofmeister effect of ions in solution are two important factors affecting the stability of salt–polymer composites, because they can contribute to decrease the interaction between the polymer chains, leading to changes in the conformation and pyrolysis mode of polymers. We believe that the finding of leveling effects would be significant for both basic and applied research of soft matter.

Abstract
This study investigated the use of ethylene glycol to form α-MoO₃ (molybdenum trioxide) from ammonium molybdate tetrahydrate at various sintering temperatures for 1 h. During the sintering process, the morphologies of the constituents were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to explain the reaction process. In this work, the results obtained using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XRD) demonstrated that, when the molybdenum trioxide powder was treated thermally at 300 °C, the material exhibited crystallinity. The peaks were indexed to correspond with the (110), (040), (021), (111), and (060) crystallographic planes, and the lattice parameters of a, b, and c were about 3.961, 13.876, and 3.969 Å. Using these observations, we confirmed that orthorhombic α-MoO₃ was formed for sintering temperatures from 300 to 700 °C. Pattern images were obtained by the selected area electron diffraction pattern (SAED) technique, and the d distance of the high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images were almost 0.39 and 0.36 nm, and the Mo 3d5/2, Mo 3d3/2, and O 1s of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were located at 233.76, 237.03, and 532.19 eV, which also demonstrated that α-MoO₃ powder had been synthesized.
