Construction of a 2D Graphene‐Like MoS2/C3N4 Heterojunction with Enhanced Visible‐Light Photocatalytic Activity and Photoelectrochemical Activity
Abstract
A novel graphene‐like MoS 2/C 3 N 4 (GL‐MoS 2/C 3 N 4) composite photocatalyst has been synthesized by a facile ethylene glycol (EG)‐assisted solvothermal method. The structure and morphology of this GL‐MoS 2/C 3 N 4 photocatalyst have been investigated by a wide range of characterization methods. The results showed that GL‐MoS 2 was uniformly distributed on the surface of GL‐C 3 N 4 forming a heterostructure. The obtained composite exhibited strong absorbing ability in the ultraviolet (UV) and visible regions. When irradiated with visible light, the composite photocatalyst showed high activity superior to those of the respective individual components GL‐MoS 2 and GL‐C 3 N 4 in the degradation of methyl orange. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the composite may be attributed to the efficient separation of electron–hole pairs as a result of the matching band potentials between GL‐MoS 2 and GL‐C 3 N 4. Furthermore, a photocatalytic mechanism for the composite material has been proposed, and the photocatalytic reaction kinetics has been measured. Moreover, GL‐MoS 2/C 3 N 4 could serve as a novel sensor for trace amounts of Cu 2+ since it exhibited good selectivity for Cu 2+ detection in water.

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.
