摘要
ZnO microspheres sensitized by CuInSe 2 and CuInS 2 nanoparticles, which were synthesized by a solvothermal method and have a size about 20 and 3.5 nm, respectively, were used to a photodegradation of rhodamine B under an irradiation of mercury lamp. Results show that the photocatalytic activities of the ZnO/CuInSe 2 and the ZnO/CuInS 2 are much higher than that of the ZnO microspheres because of a formation of the heterojunction in two systems. It is also noted that the ZnO/CuInS 2 exhibits a higher photocatalytic activity than the ZnO/CuInSe 2, which is probably related to more suitable band gap to sunlight for CuInS 2 nanocrystals and the larger specific surface due to a small size. Particularly, the ZnO/CuInSe 2/CuInS 2 shows the highest photocatalytic activities in all measured photocatalysts, which should be attributed to the formation of double heterojunctions among ZnO, CuInSe 2, and CuInS 2.
