Reduced Graphene Oxide-Hierarchical ZnO Hollow Sphere Composites with Enhanced Photocurrent and Photocatalytic Activity
Abstract
The reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-hierarchical ZnO hollow sphere composites are prepared through a simple ultrasonic treatment of the solution containing graphene oxide (GO), Zn(CH 3 COO) 2, DMSO, and H 2 O. The GO is reduced to RGO effectively, and the ZnO hollow spheres consisting of nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the surface of RGO sheets during the ultrasonic process. The optimum synergetic effect of RGO-ZnO composites is found at a RGO mass ratio of 3.56%, and the photocurrent and photodegradation efficiency on methylene blue of RGO-ZnO composites are improved by five times and 67%, respectively, compared with those of pure ZnO hollow spheres. The enhancements of photocurrent and photocatalytic activity can be attributed to the suppression of charge carriers recombination resulting from the interaction between ZnO and RGO.

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.
