ABSTRACT
Herein, we uncover simultaneously achieving plasmonic Bi metal deposition and I(-) doping by employing wide-band-gap BiOIO3 as the self-sacrificing template. It was synthesized via a facile NaBH4-assisted in situ reduction route under ambient conditions. The reducing extent as well as photocatalytic levels can be easily modulated by controlling the concentration of NaBH4 solution. It is interesting that the band gap of BiOIO3 can be continuously narrowed by the modification, and the photoresponse range is drastically extended to cover the whole visible region. Bi/I(-) codecorated BiOIO3 not only exhibits profoundly upgraded photoreactivity in comparison with pristine BiOIO3 but also shows universally strong photooxidation properties toward decomposition of multiple industrial contaminants and pharmaceutical, including phenol, 2,4-Dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), bisphenol A (BPA), dye model Rhodamine (RhB), tetracycline hydrochloride, and gaseous NO under visible light (λ ≥ 420 nm) or simulated solar light irradiation. It also outperforms the well-known and important photocatalysts C3N4, BiOBr, and Bi2WO6 for NO removal. The cooperative effects from Bi SPR and I(-) doping endow BiOIO3 with a narrowed band gap and highly boosted separation of charge carriers, thus responsible for the outstanding catalytic activity. The present study provides an absorbing candidate for practical environmental applications and also furthers our understanding of developing high-performance photocatalysts by manipulating manifold strategies in a facile way.
