Facile Photochemical Synthesis of Au/Pt/g-C3N4with Plasmon-Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity for Antibiotic Degradation
Abstract
A novel plasmonic photocatalyst, Au/Pt/g-C3N4, was prepared by a facile calcination-photodeposition technique. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and the results demonstrated that the Au and Pt nanoparticles (7-15 nm) were well-dispersed on the surfaces of g-C3N4. The Au/Pt codecorated g-C3N4 heterostructure displayed enhanced photocatalytic activity for antibiotic tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) degradation, and the degradation rate was 3.4 times higher than that of pure g-C3N4 under visible light irradiation. The enhancement of photocatalytic activity could be attributed to the surface plasmon resonance effect of Au and electron-sink function of Pt nanoparticles, which improve the optical absorption property and photogenerated charge carriers separation of g-C3N4, synergistically facilitating the photocatalysis process. Finally, a possible photocatalytic mechanism for degrading TC-HCl by Au/Pt/g-C3N4 heterostructure was tentatively proposed.

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.
