Extending the absorption to the visible region by tuning the optical band-gap of semiconductors and preventing charge carrier recombination are important parameters to achieve a higher efficiency in the field of photocatalysis. The inclusion of reduc... Read More about Carrier separation and charge transport characteristics of reduced graphene oxide supported visible-light active photocatalysts..

Reduced graphene oxide wrapped Cu2O supported on C3N4: an efficient visible light responsive semiconductor photocatalyst. (2015)
Journal Article
GANESH BABU, S., VINOTH, R., SURYA NARAYANA, P., BAHNEMANN, D. and NEPPOLIAN, B. 2015. Reduced graphene oxide wrapped Cu2O supported on C3N4: an efficient visible light responsive semiconductor photocatalyst. APL materials [online], 3(10), article number 104415. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4928286

Herein, Cu2O spheres were prepared and encapsulated with reduced graphene oxide (rGO). The Cu2O–rGO–C3N4 composite covered the whole solar spectrum with significant absorption intensity. rGO-wrapped Cu2O loading caused a red shift in the absorption w...
