Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) layered nanomaterial heterostructures, arising from the combination of 2D materials with other low-dimensional species, feature a large surface area to volume ratio, which provides a high density of active sites for catalytic applications and for (photo)electrocatalysis (PEC). Meanwhile, their electronic band structure and high electrical conductivity enable efficient charge transfer (CT) between the active material and the substrate, which is essential for catalytic activity. In recent years, researchers have demonstrated the potential of a range of 2D material interfaces, such as graphene, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), metal chalcogenides (MCs), and MXenes, for (photo)electrocatalytic applications. For instance, MCs such as MoS2 and WS2 have shown excellent catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution, while graphene and MXenes have been used for the reduction of carbon dioxide to higher value chemicals. However, despite their great potential, there are still major challenges that need to be addressed to fully realize the potential of 2D materials for PEC. For example, their stability under harsh reaction conditions, as well as their scalability for large-scale production are important factors to be considered. Generating heterojunctions (HJs) by combining 2D layered structures with other nanomaterials is a promising method to improve the photoelectrocatalytic properties of the former. In this review, we inspect thoroughly the recent literature, to demonstrate the significant potential that arises from utilizing 2D layered heterostructures in PEC processes across a broad spectrum of applications, from energy conversion and storage to environmental remediation. With the ongoing research and development, it is likely that the potential of these materials will be fully expressed in the near future.

Abstract
Mitochondria-targeted phototherapy, especially combined photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), has been regarded as an attractive strategy for the treatment of tumor. In this study, a facile approach to prepare two-dimensional (2D) BiOCl-Bi2S3 nanostructures was developed, where Bi2S3 quantum dots were doped in/on the ultrathin BiOCl nanosheets, forming a p-n heterojunction. The BiOCl-Bi2S3 shows favorable photothermal conversion efficiency (32%) and synergistically reactive oxygen species (ROS) generating capability under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. Moreover, the conjugation of synthetic targeting ligand to the surface of BiOCl-Bi2S3 endows the heterojunction effective tumor targeting ability and selective mitochondrial accumulation. The combined cancer targeting ability and synergistic PTT/PDT permit enhanced cooperative phototherapeutic efficiency of the 2D heterojunction. This study provides an attractive way for designing new class of heterostructure materials for potential applications in subcellular-targeted phototherapy.

Electrospun composite nanofibers as novel high-performance and visible-light photocatalysts for removal of environmental pollutants: A review. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 215:114296. [PMID: 36116501 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2022] [Revised: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by industries and human manipulations is coming a serious global challenge. On the other hand, the world is facing an energy crisis caused by population growth. Designing solar-driven photocatalysts which are inspired by the photosynthesis of plant leaves is a fantastic solution to use solar energy as green, available, and unlimited energy containing ∼50% visible light for the removal of environmental pollutants. The polymeric and non-polymeric-based electrospun composite nanofibers (NFs) are as innovative photocatalytic candidates which increase photocatalytic activity and transition from UV light to visible light and overcome the aggregation, photocorrosion, toxicity, and hard recycling and separation of the nanosized powder form of photocatalysts. The composite NFs are fabricated easily by either embedding the photocatalytic agents into the NFs during electrospinning or via their decorating on the surface of NFs post-electrospinning. Polyacrylonitrile-based, tungsten trioxide-based, zinc oxide-based, and titanium dioxide-based composite NFs were revealed as the most reported composite NFs. All the lately investigated electrospun composite NFs indicated long-term stability, high photocatalytic efficiency (∼> 80%) within a short time of light radiation (10-430 min), and high stability after several cycles of use. They were applied in various applications including degradation of dyes/antibiotics, water splitting, wastewater treatment, antibacterial usage, etc. The photogenerated species especially holes, O2∙-, and .OH were mostly responsible for the photocatalytic mechanism and pathway. The electrospun composite NFs have the potential to use in large-scale productions in condition that their thickness and recycling conditions are optimized, and their toxicity and detaching are resolved.

Abstract
In this work, an SrSnO3/g-C3N4 heterojunction with different dosage of SrSnO3 was fabricated by an ultrasound-assisted hydrothermal approach and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-Vis DRS), and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). Ciprofloxacin was adopted to assess the degradation performance, and the sample combined with 40% SrSnO3 eliminated 93% of ciprofloxacin (20 mg/L) within 3 h under visible light, which is 6.6 and 1.7 times greater than for SrSnO3 and g-C3N4, respectively. Furthermore, 85% CIP was extinguished after five cycles of a photocatalytic process. Ultimately, a possible photocatalytic mechanism was dissected.

Abstract
With a growing consciousness of the importance of nature stewardship, researchers are focusing their efforts on utilizing renewable energy, particularly solar energy, to address environmental concerns. In this context, photocatalysis has long been viewed as one of the most promising cleaning methods. Hence, we have prepared a sunlight-active phytol-assisted ZnO-TiO2 nanocomposite (PZTN) for photocatalytic bacterial deactivation and dye degradation process. The PZTN-photocatalysis effectively deactivated the bacterial pathogens as well as malachite green dye within 240 min under direct-sunlight. Moreover, this will be the first complete study on safety level assessment of photocatalytically-remediated water through toxicity studies. The obtained results evidenced that photocatalytically-deactivated bacteria and MG-dye showed to have no toxic effects, signifying that the PZTN-photocatalyzed water seems to be extremely safe for the environment. As a result of this research, we suggest that the PZTN could be a promising sunlight-active photocatalyst for environmental water treatment. On the other hand, biofouling is a ubiquitous phenomenon in the marine environment. Bacteria are the first organisms to foul surfaces and produce biofilms on man-made submerged materials. Interestingly, PZTN-coated PVC plastic-films effectively disallowed biofilms on their surface. This part of this research suggests that PZTN coated PVC-plastics are the best alternative for biofouling management.

Abstract
A photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on SnO2 nanoparticles (SnO2 NPs) was developed and applied for phosphatidylcholine (PC) detection in soybean oil. SnO2 NPs were grown on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode, polythionine (PTh) was electropolymerized on the surface of ITO/SnO2 NPs, and choline oxidase (ChOx) was immobilized to prepare the ITO/SnO2 NPs/PTh/ChOx electrode. The developed PEC biosensor can detect PC under visible light irradiation. The experimental conditions for PC detection were as follows: 1.8 mg mL-1 ChOx concentration, 0.5 V bias voltage, 18 mW cm-2 light intensity, and pH 6. The PEC biosensor had a detection limit of 0.005 mM (S/N = 3) and a detection range from 0.03 mM to 4 mM. This PEC biosensor based on SnO2 NPs was applied to detect PC in soybean oil. The recovery rate tested by the standard addition method was 95.2-107.4%. These findings were consistent with the results obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Therefore, the proposed PEC biosensor based on SnO2 NPs has excellent reproducibility, stability, and great potential applications in the PEC analysis of PC in soybean oil.

Abstract
Solar-to-chemical energy conversion is valuable and sustainable strategy for energy and environmental crisis through photocatalysis. The amorphous SnOx modified BiOCl (Sn-BiOCl) full-spectrum-responsive catalysts were designed and synthesized through solvothermal method. The introduced Sn regulates the growth of BiOCl to form ultrathin nanosheets with surface oxygen vacancies. And the surface modification of SnOx induces interfacial internal electric field via charge redistribution on the interface of BiOCl and SnOx to accelerate the photogenerated charge separation. The modification of SnOx decreased work function of Sn-BiOCl and thus elevated its conduction band and valence band simultaneously, leading enhanced photocatalytic reducibility with the improved generation rate of ·O2-. The surface SnOx and oxygen vacancies of Sn-BiOCl broadened light absorption range and enhanced photocatalytic performance synergistically, resulting in 14-fold increased photodegradation rate of phenol compared with pure BiOCl under full spectrum. This method is also able to expand to other metal ions (such as Fe3+, In3+ and Sb3+). This work provides a valuable concept in structure regulating for enhanced photocatalytic performance in the removal of organic pollutants by interfacial internal electric field and surface oxygen vacancies.

Abstract
Bi metal attached BiOBr with oxygen defect (BiOBr(3)-Bi(x%, x = 10, 20, 30)) nanosheets was prepared via the hydrothermal process in this study. The different characterization techniques of x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectrometer, electron spin resonance (ESR), field emission scanning electron microscope, and high resolution transmission electron microscope were used to distinguish the composition, crystal structure, and morphology of the samples. Under visible light irradiation, the BiOBr(3)-Bi(x%, x = 10, 20, 30) samples exhibited improved photocatalytic activity for the degradation of colored dyes (RhB) and colorless tetracycline hydrochloride. Such an improvement was ascribed to the widened visible light absorption and enhanced separation of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs because of the synergistic effect of oxygen vacancies and Bi metal with plasmon resonance effects. A possible photocatalytic mechanism of the quasi Z-scheme process was proposed on the basis of ESR measurements and radical-trapping experiments.

Abstract
The low separation rate of electron-hole pairs in single-component photocatalysts severely limits their applications for wastewater treatment. For this study, SnO2/BiOCOOH photocatalysts in flower-like microspheres were controllably synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method and were characterized by various advanced techniques. These SnO2/BiOCOOH nanocomposites demonstrated excellent photocatalytic activities for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), titan yellow, and levofloxacin hydrochloride (LVF). Specifically, 98.5% of RhB, 80% of titan yellow, and 85% of LVF were degraded under 5 W LED (λ = 365 nm) light irradiation within 30, 40, and 60 min, respectively. Radical trapping experiments and electron spin resonance results indicated that h+ was the dominant active radical, whereas ·O2- and ·OH played an auxiliary role in the photocatalytic system. Subsequently, a potential photocatalytic mechanism was proposed based on the experimental results.

Abstract
This report presents the superior visible-light-driven photocatalytic response of novel 2D/2D BiOCl/WS2 (BW X ) hybrid nanosheet heterojunctions prepared by a simple solution based sonochemical technique. These BW X hybrid nanosheets are composed of 2D transition metal dichalcogenide material WS2 and BiOCl nanosheets. The comparative study of photocatalytic activity of BiOCl and BiOCl/WS2 hybrid nanosheets is carried out via photodegradation of Malachite Green (MG) and photoreduction of heavy metal ion Cr(vi) under visible light irradiation. The quantum efficiency of the samples is estimated in terms of the incident photon to electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) measurements. Nearly 98.4% of the MG degradation was achieved over BiOCl/WS2 (2%) photocatalyst in 45 min of irradiation. BiOCl/WS2 (2%) hybrid nanosheet catalyst showed the highest external quantum efficiency (EQE) in both the UV and visible regimes. This accomplishment demonstrated the promise of commercial application of the 2D/2D BiOCl/WS2 (2%) hybrid nanosheet photocatalyst.

Abstract
Tungsten disulfide (WS2) as one of transition metal dichalcogenides exhibits excellent catalytic activity. However, its catalytic performances in aqueous phase reactions are limited by its hydrophobicity. Here, the natural hydrophilic two-dimensional clay was used to enhance the dispersibility of WS2 in aqueous phase. WS2/montmorillonite (WS2/MMT) composite nanosheets were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis of WS2 on the surface of montmorillonite from WCl6 and CH3CSNH2. The microstructure and morphology show that WS2 nanosheets are assembled parallelly on the montmorillonite with the interface interaction. Through the support of montmorillonite, WS2/MMT possesses higher photocatalytic ability for aqueous phase reactions than WS2, which could be due to the synergistic effect of higher adsorption property, higher hydrophilicity, dispersibility and more catalytic reaction site. The strategy could provide new ideas for obtaining novel hydrophilic photocatalyst with excellent performance.

Abstract
In photodetection, the response time is mainly controlled by the device architecture and electron/hole mobility, while the absorption coefficient and the effective separation of the electrons/holes are the key parameters for high responsivity. Here, we report an approach toward the fast and highly responsive infrared photodetection using an n-type SnSe2 thin film on a p-Si(100) substrate keeping the overall performance of the device. The I- V characteristics of the device show a rectification ratio of ∼147 at ±5 V and enhanced optoelectronic properties under 1064 nm radiation. The responsivity is 0.12 A/W at 5 V, and the response/recovery time constants were estimated as ∼57 ± 25/34 ± 15 μs, respectively. Overall, the response times are shown to be controlled by the mobility of the constituent semiconductors of a photodiode. Further, our findings suggest that n-SnSe2 can be integrated with well-established Si technology with enhanced optoelectronic properties and also pave the way in the design of fast response photodetectors for other wavelengths as well.

Abstract
This work presented an innovative and rationally engineered palindromic molecular beacon (PMB) based "Z-scheme" photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing protocol for the selective screening of kanamycin (Kana) through DNA hybridization-induced conformational conversion. Interestingly, the ingeniously designed PMB integrated the multifunctional elements including recognition region, primer-like palindromic fragment, and polymerization-nicking template. The cosensitized structures consisted of CdS quantum dot functionalized hairpin DNA2 (QD-HP2) and region-selectively deposited gold nanoparticles onto {001} facets of bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl-Au). Compared with BiOCl-Au alone, the attachment of CdS QDs onto BiOCl-Au (i.e., BiOCl-Au-CdS QDs) exhibited evidently enhanced photocurrent intensity thanks to the synergistic effect of Z-scheme BiOCl-Au-CdS QDs. After incubation with target Kana, Kana-aptamer binding could induce the exposure of PMB region for hairpin DNA1 (HP1). The exposed palindromic tails hybridized with each other (like a molecular machine) to consume the substrates (dNTPs) and fuels (enzyme) for the releasing of numerous nick fragments (Nick). The as-generated nick fragments could specifically hybridize with the complementary region of QD-HP2, thus resulting in decreasing photocurrent because of the increasing spatial distance for electron transfer between two-type photosensitizers. Under optimum conditions, the PMB-based sensing system exhibited satisfying photocurrent responses toward target Kana within the working range from 50 to 5000 fM at a low detection limit of 29 fM. Impressively, the concept of a palindromic fragment-mediated primer-free biosensing strategy offers a new avenue for advanced development of efficient and convenient biodetection systems.

Abstract
Bismuth oxyhalides have recently gained attention for their promise as photocatalysts. Due to their layered structure, these materials present fascinating and highly desirable physicochemical properties including visible light photocatalytic capability and improved charge separation. While bismuth oxyhalides have been rigorously evaluated for the photocatalytic degradation of dyes and many synthesis strategies have been employed to enhance this property, relatively little work has been done to test them against pharmaceuticals and pesticides. These persistent organic pollutants are identified as emerging concerns by the EPA and effective strategies must be developed to combat them. Here, we review recent work directed at characterizing the nature of the interactions between bismuth oxyhalides and persistent organic pollutants using techniques including LC-MS/MS for the determination of photocatalytic degradation intermediates and radical scavenging to determine active species during photocatalytic degradation. The reported investigations indicate that the high activity of bismuth oxyhalides for the breakdown of persistent organic pollutants from water can be largely attributed to the strong oxidizing power of electron holes in the valence band. Unlike conventional catalysts like TiO2, these catalysts can also function in ambient solar conditions. This suggests a much wider potential use for these materials as green catalysts for industrial photocatalytic transformation, particularly in flow chemistry applications.

Abstract
Wormhole-like mesoporous tin oxide was synthesized via a facile evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) method, and the gas-sensing properties were evaluated for different target gases. The effect of calcination temperature on gas-sensing properties of mesoporous tin oxide was investigated. The results demonstrate that the mesoporous tin oxide sensor calcined at 400 °C exhibits remarkable selectivity to ethanol vapors comparison with other target gases and has a good performance in the operating temperature and response/recovery time. This might be attributed to their high specific surface area and porous structure, which can provide more active sites and generate more chemisorbed oxygen spices to promote the diffusion and adsorption of gas molecules on the surface of the gas-sensing material. A possible formation mechanism of the mesoporous tin oxide and the enhanced gas-sensing mechanism are proposed. The mesoporous tin oxide shows prospective detecting application in the gas sensor fields.

Abstract
This work reports on the construction of a Bi24O31Cl10/BiOCl heterojunction via a simple thermal annealing method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated that the phase transformation from BiOCl to Bi24O31Cl10 could be realized during the thermal annealing process. The high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) binding energy shifts, Raman spectra and Fouier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra confirmed the formation of the Bi24O31Cl10/BiOCl heterojunction. The obtained Bi24O31Cl10/BiOCl photocatalyst showed excellent conversion efficiency and selectivity toward photocatalytic conversion of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde under visible light irradiation. The radical scavengers and electron spin resonance (ESR) results suggested that the photogenerated holes were the dominant reactive species responsible for the photocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol and superoxide radicals were not involved in the photocatalytic process. The in-situ generation of Bi24O31Cl10/BiOCl heterojunction may own superior interfacial contact than the two-step synthesized heterojunctions, which promotes the transfer of photogenerated charge carriers and is favorable for excellent photocatalytic activities.
