A simple calcination method was employed to prepare a Z-scheme N-doped K4Nb6O17/g-C3N4(KCN)heterojunction photocatalyst,in which the electronic structure of K4Nb6O17 was regulated by N-doping,and g-C3N4 was formed bot...A simple calcination method was employed to prepare a Z-scheme N-doped K4Nb6O17/g-C3N4(KCN)heterojunction photocatalyst,in which the electronic structure of K4Nb6O17 was regulated by N-doping,and g-C3N4 was formed both on the surface and within the interlayer spaces of K4Nb6O17.The KCN composite showed profoundly improved photocatalytic activity for both H2 generation and RhB degradation compared to its counterparts.This improved performance was attributed to the synergistic effects of N-doping,which broadened its light harvesting ability,and heterojunction formation,which increased the charge separation rate.The relatively low BET specific surface area of the KCN composite had little effect on its photocatalytic activity.Based on ESR spectroscopy studies,•O2^−,•OH,and h^+are the main active species in the photocatalytic degradation of RhB.Thus,it is reasonable to propose a Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism over the KCN composite,which exhibits the dual advantages of efficient charge separation and high redox ability.Our work provides a simple approach for constructing large-scale Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts with high photocatalytic performance.展开更多

The single-crystal XRD analysis shows that it crystallizes in triclinic space group P■ with a = 8.9601(5), b = 9.1835(6), c = 10.6574(7) ?, a = 95.050(6)°, b = 111.569(5)°, g = 90.280(6)°, V = 811.71(9) ?3, Z = 2, Mr = 719.46, Dc = 2.944 g/cm3, μ = 5.127 mm-1, F(000) = 660, R = 0.0361 and wR = 0.0855 for 3846 observed reflections and 262 variables. This compound represents a new structure that features a three-dimensional [Al4B6O17]n4n- framework constructed by AlO4 tetrahedra, BO3 triangles, and B2O54-groups composed of two corner-sharing BO3 triangles, with intersecting open channels accommodating Ba2+ cations. It melts incongruently at 849 ℃. The existence of BO3 groups is confirmed by FT-IR and Raman spectra. The insulating nature with an optical band gap of about 3.50 eV is revealed by UV-VIS diffuse reflectance spectrum. Band structure calculations indicate that it is an indirect band material.展开更多
