Heterojunction Architecture of N‐Doped WO 3 Nanobundles with Ce 2 S 3 Nanodots Hybridized on a Carbon Textile Enables a Highly Efficient Flexible Photocatalyst
Abstract
Abstract The availability of robust, versatile, and efficient photocatalysts is the main bottleneck in practical applications of photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. Herein, N‐WO 3 /Ce 2 S 3 nanotube bundles (NBs) are synthesized and successfully immobilized on a carbon textile, resulting in a flexible and conducting photocatalyst. Due to the large interfacial area between N‐WO 3 and Ce 2 S 3 , the interwoven 3D carbon architecture and, more importantly, the establishment of a heterojunction between N‐WO 3 and Ce 2 S 3 , the resultant photocatalyst exhibits excellent light absorption capacity and superior ability to separate photoinduced electron–hole pairs for the photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds in air and water media. Theoretical calculations confirm that the strong electronic interaction between N‐WO 3 and Ce 2 S 3 can be beneficial to the enhancement of the charge carrier transfer dynamics of the as‐prepared photocatalyst. This work provides a new protocol for constructing efficient flexible photocatalysts for application in environmental remediation.
