Constructing 1D/2D heterojunction photocatalyst from FeSe ₂ nanorods and MoSe ₂ nanoplates with high photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical performance

Although the traditional metal oxide catalyst has high activity and strong degradation ability, the forbidden bandgap is generally larger, and the utilization rate of sunlight is much low. Moreover, the high internal resistance inhibits carrier transfer, so the photoelectrochemical performance needs to be improved. Selenides with narrow bandgap and low internal resistance are promising candidates for photocatalysts. A new type of 1D/2D selenide heterojunction was constructed by compositing MoSe 2 and FeSe 2 , two kinds of narrow bandgap metal selenides. In this 1D/2D heterojunction, MoSe 2 presents a three-dimensional network structure, which can effectively collect and transport optical carriers, and it is an ideal heterostructure as a substrate loaded with 1D FeSe 2 nanorods. Moreover, this heterojunction has good light absorption characteristics and can achieve full spectrum absorption of ultraviolet and visible light. This FeSe 2 /MoSe 2 composite has photocatalytic performance more than 3.4 times that of MoSe 2 , and its photoelectrochemical performance is more than 2 times. The experimental results show that FeSe 2 / MoSe 2 is an ideal composite system with great potential in photocatalysis.

“…Figure denotes the electron density diagram of pristine δ‐P and the electron density of δ‐P after adsorption of formaldehyde. Besides, the electron density gives the clear perception on formaldehyde molecular adsorption that leads to difference in the electron density of δ‐P as 0.9088 e/a.u. 3 , 0.8691 e/a.u.…”

Computational Studies on the Interaction of Formaldehyde Vapor with δ‐Phosphorene Nanosheet: A DFT Insight

2020

We investigated the electronic properties and the structural firmness of δ‐phosphorene nanosheet (δ‐P) based on density functional theory. δ‐P shows semiconductor nature with a band gap of 0.363 eV. We used δ‐P sheets to adsorb formaldehyde vapors. The adsorption energy infers the physisorption type of interaction between formaldehyde and δ‐P. The charge transfer analysis reveals that δ‐P acts as acceptor of electrons. The density of state spectrum and band structure maps shows the variation in the energy bandgap of δ‐P, which results from the adsorption of formaldehyde. Also, a noticeable variation in the electron densities has been observed due to formaldehyde interaction with δ‐P. Thus, the result shows that δ‐P sheets can be used as a base substrate for formaldehyde vapors.
