Abstract:ZnO as a promising photocatalyst has gained much attention for the removal of organic pollutants from water. However, the main drawbacks of the relatively low photocatalytic activity and high recombination rate of photo excited electronhole pairs, restrict its potential applications. Promoting the spatial separation of photo excited charge carriers is of paramount signi? cance for photocatalysis, because the dierence in the band positions make the potential gradient at the composite boundary. In this work, our… Show more
