Photocorrosion Suppression of ZnO Nanoparticles via Hybridization with Graphite-like Carbon and Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
Abstract
A method to suppress the photocorrosion of ZnO nanoparticles was developed by surface hybridization of ZnO with graphite-like carbon layers. The presence of carbon on the surface of the ZnO could significantly suppress the coalescence and crystal growth of ZnO nanoparticles during high-temperature treatment. The nanosized structure of ZnO was well preserved even after high-temperature calcination. The photocatalytic activity of ZnO was enhanced by hybridization with carbon layers attributed to the improved adsorption ability and crystallinity. The as-prepared samples exhibited high activity even after 720 h of photocatalysis reaction, while the pure ZnO nanoparticle was almost deactivated in 100 h due to serious photocorrosion. The as-prepared samples also showed much better activity under extreme pH conditions than that of pure ZnO. The mechanism of photocorrosion suppression and higher stability was then systematically investigated based on the crystal structure and the photocatalysis degradation process.

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.
