Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photocatalytic materials, and specifically relates to Ag-loaded rare earth metal-doped Bi2WO6:Yb prepared by a hydrothermal method 3+ ,Tm 3+ / Ag composite photocatalyst and its application. Background Technique
[0002] With the development of modern social technologies, the environmental pollution problem of the earth has become increasingly serious. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop clean and renewable energy, and thus photocatalytic technology has received extensive attention. Photocatalytic materials have the characteristics of CO2 photoreduction, hydrogen production, photocatalytic nitrogen fixation, and degradation of harmful substances to solve the energy and environmental problems faced by humans. Due to the unique physical and chemical properties of Bi2WO6, it has attracted great attention in recent years. Bi2WO6 has good photocatalytic activity, which is related to the special Aurivillius layered structure composed of WO6 octahedrons and Bi-O-Bi layers. However, unfortunately, most of the visible light is missed, and due to the rapid recombination of photo-generated electron-hole pairs, the photocatalytic activity of pure Bi2WO6 is still low. To meet the challenges of practical applications, it is necessary to inhibit the recombination of electrons and holes. It is known that the photocatalytic activity is affected by various factors, and doping has been proven to be an effective way to semiconductorize Bi2WO6. Due to its excellent structural, electrical, and optical properties, Bi2WO6 retains its potential as a photocatalytic material for environmental and energy conversion. The N-type semiconductor characteristics and the band gap of 2.6-2.8 eV enable the photoactivity of Bi2WO6 to work in the visible light range, but its quantum efficiency is still very low. Its weak visible light absorption response, high charge recombination, small specific surface area, and easy recombination of photo-generated electrons and holes result in its small photocatalytic activity.
[0003] The doping modification method is a common and effective means to improve the electronic structure and surface properties of semiconductor materials, which is mainly divided into non-metal element doping and metal element doping. Bi2WO6 has a layered structure, which is conducive to the uniform doping of dopants. In recent years, it has been proven that Ag-modified semiconductors are promising in enhancing photocatalytic activity and can achieve efficient separation of electron-hole pairs.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] In the first aspect of the embodiments of the present invention, a composite photocatalyst doped with Ag-loaded rare earth metals is provided.

[0031] Specifically, Ag forms a Schottky junction on the surface of Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ , introducing the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Their synergistic effect optimizes the band structure and the separation efficiency of photo-generated carriers of Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ . The dopant hybridizes with the original molecular orbitals of Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ , thereby changing its band structure, electronic structure and optical properties. The Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ / Ag photocatalyst loaded with Ag and co-doped with ytterbium and thulium rare earths has a narrower band gap, lower band gap energy, longer fluorescence lifetime, improves the utilization efficiency of the solar spectrum, and also reduces the recombination rate of photo-generated electrons and holes, thus effectively improving the photocatalytic performance.
[0032] In the second aspect of the embodiments of the present invention, a preparation method of a composite photocatalyst doped with Ag-loaded rare earth metals is provided, including the following steps:
[0033] Dropwise add a bismuth tungstate solution with a pH of 0.7 - 1.3 to a bismuth nitrate solution, and then sequentially add a solution containing Yb 3+ solution, a solution containing Tm 3+ solution and a solution containing Ag + solution. Heat and stir at 60 - 90 °C for 2 - 3 h, put it into a reaction kettle, heat in an oven at 140 - 180 °C for 20 - 22 h, centrifuge and wash, dry at 60 - 80 °C for 12 - 15 h, and finally place it in a muffle furnace, control the heating rate at 4 - 6 °C / min, heat up to 500 - 550 °C, calcine for 4 - 5 h, and grind to obtain Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ / Ag composite photocatalyst.
[0034] Specifically, the present invention prepares Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+Ag composite photocatalyst. This method is convenient and simple to operate, and has advantages such as low-temperature synthesis and morphology control. The process conditions have an important impact on hydrothermal synthesis, such as temperature, time, solution pH value, and sealant. During the synthesis of nanomaterials, it is a challenge to synthesize pure component materials using any synthesis method, but the hydrothermal method is a good solution to these problems.
[0035] In the third aspect of the embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an application of an Ag-loaded rare earth metal-doped composite photocatalyst in the catalytic degradation of organic dyes under near-infrared light.
[0036] Specifically, the Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ ,Tm 3+ / Ag photocatalyst loaded with Ag and co-doped with ytterbium and thulium rare earths has a narrower band gap, lower band gap energy, and longer fluorescence lifetime. While improving the utilization efficiency of the solar spectrum, it also reduces the recombination rate of photo-generated electrons and holes, thus effectively improving the photocatalytic performance.

It can be seen that the X-ray diffraction peaks of the samples can all point well to the orthorhombic phase of Bi2WO6 (JCPDS No. 04-008-0332). The results show that the preparation of Bi2WO6 is successful. The doping of Yb Figure 1 and Tm 3+ and the loading of Ag have little effect on the crystal phase of the Bi2WO6 substrate. And no characteristic diffraction peaks of ytterbium, thulium single substances, Ag and oxides are found in the XRD pattern, indicating that Bi2WO6:Yb 3+ loaded with Ag and co-doped with ytterbium and thulium ions has been successfully prepared. 3+ ,Tm 3+ / Ag.

It can be seen that with the loading of Ag, the upconversion luminescence at 980 nm of Bi2WO6: Yb Figure 2 , Tm 3+ , Tm 3+ is enhanced, and the luminescence of Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag is the strongest.
[0071] Example 2
[0072] Using Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ photocatalyst and Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag composite photocatalyst to conduct performance tests on photocatalytic materials.
[0073] The method is as follows: Weigh 0.1 g of the photocatalyst and place it in a condensation cup, and add 30 mL of rhodamine B (RhB) solution with a concentration of 10 mg / L to be degraded. Considering that the sample has a certain adsorption property, first stir the rhodamine B solution mixed with the photocatalyst in the dark for 30 min, and take 2.5 mL of samples before and after the dark treatment to form an adsorption-desorption equilibrium state between the photocatalyst and rhodamine B, avoiding errors caused by adsorption. Then, using a 980 nm laser as the light source, align the light source with the photocatalytic system to be tested. The whole process is strictly protected from sunlight. Take 2.5 mL of samples every 2 h, and the photocatalytic process lasts for 8 h. Place the sampled liquid in a centrifuge and centrifuge it at 8000 rpm for 5 min. Then take 2 mL of the supernatant in the tube and place it in a cuvette, and use a UV-3600 to measure the residual rhodamine B concentration in the sample liquid, and evaluate the catalytic performance of the catalyst sample based on the absorbance of the sample liquid.

As Figure 3 can be seen, under the irradiation of 980 nm light, the absorption intensity of the characteristic absorption peak of the RhB solution at 550 nm gradually decreases over time, indicating that the molecular structure of RhB is destroyed, resulting in a decrease in its absorbance. Thus, Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ and Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag catalysts all have infrared photocatalytic performance to a certain extent.

Among them, A is Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ , B is Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag. As Figure 4 can be seen, the Ag-loaded and ytterbium-thulium rare-earth co-doped Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag photocatalysis has a higher degradation efficiency than Bi2WO6: 15% Yb without Ag loading 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ . After the same near-infrared light irradiation time, the degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B by Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ is 14.8%, and the degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B by Bi2WO6: 15% Yb 3+ , 0.75% Tm 3+ / 1% Ag is 21.6%. Thus, it can be seen that the near-infrared photocatalytic performance of Bi2WO6: Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ is enhanced after loading Ag.
