Abstract

Hollow Polyhedral superstructures can capture light effectively and have adjustable composite composition, which is useful for constructing Z-scheme systems. Here, rational design of hollow flower-like polyhedral α-Fe2O3/defective MoS2/Ag Z-Scheme heterojunctions is described, using polyhedral α-Fe2O3 as the template and via a one-pot hydrothermal and postdeposition strategy. The hollow flower-like polyhedral heterojunctions utilize multiple reflections of light in the hollow structure to achieve enhanced photocatalytic activity. Defective MoS2 acts as a link between α-Fe2O3 and Ag nanoparticles, providing a great deal of active sites and broadening the photoresponse region. Because of the enhancement of light absorption and surface plasma resonance of Ag, α-Fe2O3/defective MoS2/Ag has significant photothermal effect. The photogenerated carriers can be effectively separated by the construction of a Z-scheme system. Importantly, photocatalytic-Fenton degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol and salicylic acid over hollow flower-like polyhedral α-Fe2O3/defective MoS2/Ag is higher than that of α-Fe2O3 and α-Fe2O3/defective MoS2.
