Novel p-n junction photocatalysts BiOI/(BiO)2CO3 with different contents of BiOI were in situ synthesized by etching (BiO)2CO3 precursor with hydroiodic acid (HI) solution. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS)

In this paper, we report on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Ulva lactuca (seaweed) at room temperature along with photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange dye. UV spectral analysis showed peak at 430 nm with special reference to the excitation of
The structure, composition and photocatalytic activity of TiO(2) nanoparticles annealed in various gas atmospheres (N(2), NH(3) and H(2)) were studied in this work. The effect of treatment on crystal structure, particle size, chemical composition and optical absorbance were assessed by
