- W4309343887 abstract "The strategic designing of graphitic carbon nitride (CN)by elemental doping is likely to generate nitrogen vacancies which benefit by serving as electron trapping sites or by introducing additional energy levels (mid-gap states). In this work, uracil-assisted oxygen doped graphitic carbon nitride (OCNv-Ux) was synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The OCNv-U40 exhibited vigorous photocatalytic efficiency for 98% trimethoprim (TMP) antibiotic degradation and 90.8% Cr (VI) reduction under visible light irradiations. A combined inference from experimental results and simulation studies indicates band gap reduction from 2.7 to 2.34 eV for extended visible light absorption up to 620 nm. In particular, the density of states comprehends band structure regulation by the electron redistribution resulting in valence band up shifting and downshift of the conduction band, as validated by Mott-Schottky spectra. The synergistic outcomes of nitrogen vacancies and oxygen doping sites restrain the recombination of electron-hole pairs by mid-gap state formation and also promote high oxygen molecule adsorption on the nitrogen vacancies. The pioneering advantage of highly adsorbed oxygen molecule leads to the generation of plentiful superoxide anion radicals along with indirect production of hydroxyl radicals via in-situ produced H2O2, evident by radical scavenging and electron paramagnetic resonance experiments. The effect of chloride and nitrate anions showed inhibitory effect on the TMP degradation efficiency. The identification of formed intermediates and TMP degradation mechanism involving oxidation, hydroxylation, and cleavage was proposed, as investigated by TMP DFT studies. This research accomplishes significant enhancement in pristine CN photocatalytic activity by the virtue of increased specific surface area, fully exposed N-vacancies active sites, optimized electronic, structure and visible light active band gap." @default.
