Abstract
Construction of the tunable oxygen vacancies (OVs) is widely utilized to accelerate molecular oxygen activation for boosting photocatalytic performance. Herein, the in-situ introduction of OVs on Bi2MoO6 was accomplished using a calcination treatment in an H2/Ar atmosphere. The introduced OVs can not only facilitate carrier separation, but also strengthen the exciton effect, which accelerates singlet oxygen generation through the energy transfer process. Superior carrier separation and abundant singlet oxygen played a crucial role in favoring photocatalytic NaPCP degradation. The optimal BMO-001-300 sample exhibited the fastest NaPCP degradation rate of 0.033 min−1, about 3.8 times higher than that of the pristine Bi2MoO6. NaPCP was effectively degraded and mineralized mainly through dechlorination, dehydroxylation and benzene ring opening. The present work will shed light on the construction and roles of OVs in semiconductor-based photocatalysis and provide a novel insight into ROS-mediated photocatalytic degradation.
