Interface Influence on Photocatalytic Properties of Ag2MoO4/ZnO Heterojunctions

Ag 2 MoO 4 /ZnO heterostructures were synthesized by a co-precipitation method in room temperature. XRD studies have showed the formation of the heterostructures containing wurtzite-type structure with hexagonal phase (ZnO) and spinel-type cubic structures (Ag 2 MoO 4) . The crystal morphologies and sizes were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The photocatalytic activities were evaluated by the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under ultraviolet light irradiation. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17807/orbital.v11i2.1364
