TL;DR: A simple one-step hydrothermal method toward in situ growth of ultradispersed mesoporous TiO2 nanocrystals with (001) facets on GAs results in highly active photocatalysis, a high rate capability, and stable cycling.
Abstract: TiO2/graphene composites have been well studied as a solar light photocatalysts and electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Recent reports have shown that ultralight 3D-graphene aerogels (GAs) can better adsorb organic pollutants and can provide multidimensional electron transport pathways, implying a significant potential application for photocatalysis and LIBs. Here, we report a simple one-step hydrothermal method toward in situ growth of ultradispersed mesoporous TiO2 nanocrystals with (001) facets on GAs. This method uses glucose as the dispersant and linker owing to its hierarchically porous structure and a high surface area. The TiO2/GAs reported here exhibit a highly recyclable photocatalytic activity for methyl orange pollutant and a high specific capacity in LIBs. The strong interaction between TiO2 and GAs, the facet characteristics, the high electrical conductivity, and the three-dimensional hierarchically porous structure of these composites results in highly active photocatalysi...

TL;DR: In this paper, the photocatalytic activity of those catalysts was investigated for the liquid phase photocatatlytic degradation of active yellow XRG dye diluted in water under UV and visible light irradiation.
Abstract: Iron-ion-doped anatase titanium (IV) dioxide (TiO2) samples were prepared by hydrothermal hydrolysis and crystallization in octanol-water solution. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, BET-specific surface area determination, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra showed a slight shift to longer wavelengths and an extension of the absorption in the visible region for almost all the ion-doped samples, compared to the non-doped sample. The photocatalytic activity of those catalysts was investigated for the liquid phase photocatatlytic degradation of active yellow XRG dye diluted in water under UV and visible light irradiation. It was found that the catalysts doped with FeCl3 have better catalytic activity for photodegradation of XRG than those doped with FeCl2. The amount of doped iron ion plays a significant role in affecting its photocatalytic activity and iron doped with optimum content can enhance photocatalytic activity, especially under visible light irradiation.

TL;DR: This is the first report describing construction of a hollow Co9 S8 based Z-scheme system for photocatalytic water splitting, which gives full play to the advantages of light-harvesting and charges separation.
Abstract: Hollow structures with an efficient light harvesting and tunable interior component offer great advantages for constructing a Z-scheme system. Controlled design of hollow cobalt sulfide (Co9S8) cubes embedded with cadmium sulfide quantum dots (QDs) is described, using hollow Co(OH)2 as the template and a one-pot hydrothermal strategy. The hollow CdS/Co9S8 cubes utilize multiple reflections of light in the cubic structure to achieve enhanced photocatalytic activity. Importantly, the photoexcited charge carriers can be effectively separated by the construction of a redox-mediator-free Z-scheme system. The hydrogen evolution rate over hollow CdS/Co9S8 is 134 and 9.1 times higher than that of pure hollow Co9S8 and CdS QDs under simulated solar light irradiation, respectively. Moreover, this is the first report describing construction of a hollow Co9S8 based Z-scheme system for photocatalytic water splitting, which gives full play to the advantages of light-harvesting and charges separation.

TL;DR: The photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) in water has been investigated over titanium dioxide consisting of different anatase/rutile ratios and the catalyst containing 74.2% anatase showed the highest photocatalytic activity, which is due to a synergistic effect between anatase and rutile.
Abstract: Nanocrystalline TiO2 catalysts with different anatase/rutile ratios and high surface area (113−169 m2/g) have been prepared at low temperature by the microemulsion-mediated hydrothermal method. The...

TL;DR: It is anticipated that this review can stimulate a new research doorway to facilitate the next generation of g-C3N4-based photocatalysts with ameliorated performances by harnessing the outstanding structural, electronic, and optical properties for the development of a sustainable future without environmental detriment.
Abstract: As a fascinating conjugated polymer, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has become a new research hotspot and drawn broad interdisciplinary attention as a metal-free and visible-light-responsive photocatalyst in the arena of solar energy conversion and environmental remediation. This is due to its appealing electronic band structure, high physicochemical stability, and “earth-abundant” nature. This critical review summarizes a panorama of the latest progress related to the design and construction of pristine g-C3N4 and g-C3N4-based nanocomposites, including (1) nanoarchitecture design of bare g-C3N4, such as hard and soft templating approaches, supramolecular preorganization assembly, exfoliation, and template-free synthesis routes, (2) functionalization of g-C3N4 at an atomic level (elemental doping) and molecular level (copolymerization), and (3) modification of g-C3N4 with well-matched energy levels of another semiconductor or a metal as a cocatalyst to form heterojunction nanostructures. The constructi...
