2D/2D Heterojunction of Ultrathin MXene/Bi2WO6 Nanosheets for Improved Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Cao, Shaowen, Shen, Baojia, Tong, Tong, Fu, Junwei, Yu, Jiaguo·2018·Advanced Functional Materials

Abstract

Exploring cheap and efficient cocatalysts for enhancing the performance of photocatalysts is a challenge in the energy conversion field. Herein, 2D ultrathin Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets, a kind of MXenes, are prepared by etching Ti 3 AlC 2 with subsequent ultrasonic exfoliation. A novel 2D/2D heterojunction of ultrathin Ti 3 C 2/Bi 2 WO 6 nanosheets is then successfully prepared by in situ growth of Bi 2 WO 6 ultrathin nanosheets on the surface of these Ti 3 C 2 ultrathin nanosheets. The resultant Ti 3 C 2/Bi 2 WO 6 hybrids exhibit a short charge transport distance and a large interface contact area, assuring excellent bulk‐to‐surface and interfacial charge transfer abilities. Meanwhile, the improved specific surface area and pore structure endow Ti 3 C 2/Bi 2 WO 6 hybrids with an enhanced CO 2 adsorption capability. As a result, the 2D/2D heterojunction of ultrathin Ti 3 C 2/Bi 2 WO 6 nanosheets shows significant improvement on the performance of photocatalytic CO 2 reduction under simulated solar irradiation. The total yield of CH 4 and CH 3 OH obtained on the optimized Ti 3 C 2/Bi 2 WO 6 hybrid is 4.6 times that obtained on pristine Bi 2 WO 6 ultrathin nanosheets. This work provides a new protocol for constructing 2D/2D photocatalytic systems and demonstrates Ti 3 C 2 as a promising and cheap cocatalyst.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
