Biomolecule-assisted fabrication of copper doped SnS2nanosheet–reduced graphene oxide junctions with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity

An, Xiaoqiang, Yu, Jimmy C., Tang, Junwang·2014·J. Mater. Chem. A

Abstract

Novel copper (3 at%) doped SnS2 nanosheet–reduced graphene oxide (RGO) junctions were fabricated by a facile cysteine-assisted hydrothermal method. Superior visible-light-driven activity for methyl orange decomposition has been achieved. The average apparent rate of Cu-doped SnS2 nanosheet–RGO composites is more than 7 times higher than that of SnS2, and even 2 times higher than CdS nanoparticles, the benchmark material. Further characterization indicates that facilitating charge separation, fast electron transport and a large surface area together play key roles in the materials enhanced photoactivity. Due to their chemical stability, low cost and lower toxicity, Cu-doped SnS2–RGO composites show great potential as high-efficiency visible-light-driven photocatalysts for environmental remediation and energy conversion.

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.
