Photocatalytic H2O2 and NH3 production on Zn–Cu–In–S QDs coupled with BiOI MFs via a Z-scheme charge transfer dynamic.

Ce‐Doped MoO3 Photocatalyst as an Environmental Purifier for Removal of Noxious Rhodamine B Organic Pollutant in Wastewater

“…When photons with an energy higher than the bandgap excel on the catalyst, electrons jump from the VB to the CB, resulting in excitons (electron-hole pairs). [66,67] Many other combinations are possible for these photogenerated excitons, such as (a) at catalytic surface sites, (b) with the crystal lattice, (c) by oxidizing an external species with holes, and (d) by reducing an external species with electrons. In the last, most advanced stage of RhB dye degradation, photogenerated e À and h þ react actively with the external species.…”

Compositionally engineered Cd–Mo–Se alloyed QDs toward photocatalytic H2O2 production and Cr(vi) reduction with a detailed mechanism and influencing parameters

“…32–35 In this context, the author group has made tremendous advancements and developed potent QDs toward water splitting, N 2 fixation, and environmental pollutant remediation-related applications. 36–39 According to several studies, visible light activates QDs in an aerobic environment and releases superoxide radicals (˙O 2 − ), which are regarded as one of the crucial intermediates for the production of H 2 O 2 . Therefore, photocatalytic generation of H 2 O 2 employing QDs as a photocatalyst under visible light conditions may be feasible.…”
