Construction of hierarchical Fe2O3@MnO2 core/shell nanocube supported C3N4 for dual Z-scheme photocatalytic water splitting

Self‐propelling nanomotor made from halloysite and catalysis in Fenton‐like reaction

“…The intriguing petal‐like structures resulted in larger surface areas, and this would afford full contact between active oxygen species and dye molecules. Furthermore, the highly porous MnO 2 nanoflowers would offer abundant channels for transferring charge carriers during the oxidation process 48 …”

A surface plasmon polariton-triggered Z-scheme for overall water splitting and solely light-induced hydrogen generation

“…We also compared the efficiency of our system with the actual published ones (Table 1). 33,42,[74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85] All recent results, presented in Table 1, utilize the Z-scheme design for OWS, but they can conditionally be divided into two main groupswith 74-80 or without 33,42,[81][82][83][84][85] the use of sacricial agents. As is evident, in the latter case, the proposed plasmon-assisted triggering of Z-scheme efficiency is especially favorable as the utilization of plasmon triggering allows achieving very reasonable hydrogen production and sufficient increase in the STH value in comparison with the most of the previously published schemes.…”

MOF-5-derived ZnO–C nanoparticles combined with α-MnO2 for the efficient degradation of tetracycline under visible light

“…28 There are many composite photocatalytic materials that have been studied, such as 2D/2D g-C 3 N 4 /MnO 2 Z-scheme composites with defective Mn 3+ , 29 3D flower-like Bi 2 WO 6 /MnO 2 nanocomposites, 30 α -MnO 2 / α -MoO 3 heterojunctions, 31 and dual Z-scheme core/shell Fe 2 O 3 @MnO 2 nanocube-supported C 3 N 4 . 32 In recent years, the potential of MnO 2 in photocatalysis has been gradually explored.…”
