报告简介：

In this study, fabrication and characterization of Bi-based catalysts with improved visible-light-driven (VLD) photocatalytic bacterial inactivation conducted by our research group will be introduced. (1) BiOBr nanosheets with a high percentage of exposed {001} facets showed better VLD photocatalytic inactivation activity. The facet-dependent bacterial inactivation mechanisms of BiOBr nanosheets were determined [1]. (2) Boron atoms were successfully doped into BiOBr nanosheets. Their VLD photocatalytic bacterial inactivation activities were improved and their inactivation mechanisms were systematically investigated [2]. (3) A simple alkali treatment of BiOBr produced brown color nanosheets. It was found that Bi2O4 nanoparticles were in situ formed on the surface of BiOBr nanosheets by a combined action of NaOH-induced dehalogenation and light triggered photoexcited hole oxidation. The brown BiOBr nanosheets showed exceptional good performance in VLD photocatalytic bacterial disinfection [3]. (4) Oxygen defective yolk-shell BiO2-xspheres were synthesized. The composite possess distinctive oxygen vacancy with a high affinity for the molecular oxygen and yolk-shell structure enhanced light absorption resulted from the multi-reflection of the incident light within the interior of the composite, played key roles to enhance VLD photocatalytic bacterial inactivation [4].
