摘 要:Hexagonal-phase WO3 nanosheet with dominant facets was synthesized by a solvothermal-calcination method, and CuO was composite and the electrodeposition method. The Cu O/WO-001 composite nanosheets exhibited an excellent photocatalytic CO reduction performance under visible irradiation(λ 400 nm). The yields of CO, O and H using Cu O/WO-001 photocatalysts reached 11.7, 5.7 and 0.7 μmol, respectively, after24 h visible-light illumination and the photocatalyst showed good photocatalytic activity in the fourth cycling *** enhanced photocatalytic activity was ascribed to the efficient separation of the photoinduced charges derived from the constructed heterojunction in the nanosheet composite. The(0 0 1) facet of hexagonal phase WO was in favor of the transfer between the photo-induced holes and the water molecules, conducing to H O oxidation in the CO reduction process. The indirect Z-scheme charge transfer mode of Cu O/WO was then demonstrated by measuring band structures and the potential mechanism of CO reduction is further proposed. The present research is expected to be useful in developing Z-scheme photocatalysts of WO-based nanosheet, and provides meaningful information for hopefully stimulating more insightful investigations of systematical design and controlled assembly of visible-light-driven photocatalysts.
