ABSTRACT
The efficient electron-hole charge pair separation, ultra-fast electron migration and excellent light harvest capacity are essential for semiconductor photocatalyst with superior photocatalytic performance. In this study, we constructed layered 2D/2D heterojunction composite of Bi@Bi5O7I/rGO (BiBGOI) through a facile surface charge mediated self-assembly strategy. The unique 2D/2D heterostructure with face to face contact can increase the contact area and generate a large amount of charge transfer nanochannels in the interfacial heterojunction, resulting in the enhancement of photocatalytic activity. Addition of semimetal Bi can enhance light absorption, and the local electromagnetic field dominated by SPR effect is favorable for photoinduced charge pair separation. The novel composite showed superior photocatalytic performance for decomposing levofloxacin (LVFX), which was attributed to the unique 2D/2D structure and SPR effect. The enhanced mineralization ability of the novel composite was ascribed to the strong oxidization ability of photoinduced holes, further evaluating high charge pair separation efficiency. In addition, the strong adsorption capacity of rGO for LVFX molecules can enable active radicals transfer into the surface to decompose it. This work will shed light on constructing 2D/2D heterojunction system assisted with SPR effect for the practical application in removal of organic pollutants.
