Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Cascade charge transfer was realized by a H-bond linked zinc phthalocyanine/BiVO nanosheet (ZnPc/BVNS) composite, which subsequently works as an efficient wide-visible-light-driven photocatalyst for converting CO into CO and CH , as shown by product analysis and C isotopic measurement. The optimized ZnPc/BVNS nanocomposite exhibits a ca. 16-fold enhancement in the quantum efficiency compared with the reported BiVO nanoparticles at the excitation of 520 nm with an assistance of 660 nm photons. Experimental and theoretical results show the exceptional activities are attributed to the rapid charge separation by a cascade Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism formed by the dimension-matched ultrathin (ca. 8 nm) heterojunction nanostructure. The central Zn in ZnPc could accept the excited electrons from the ligand and then provide a catalytic function for CO reduction. This Z-scheme is also feasible for other MPc, such as FePc and CoPc, together with BVNS.
