    A Facile Method for Boosting the Graphitic Carbon Nitride's Photocatalytic Activity Based on 0d/2d S-Scheme Heterojunction Nanocomposite Architecture
    (Elsevier, 2024) Kahraman, Zeynep; Kartal, Uğur; Gent, Aziz; Alp, Emre
    Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) has received significant interest as a metal -free photocatalyst. The S -scheme photocatalytic system has great potential to improve the charge separation in semiconductor photocatalysts. In this study, we have fabricated non-toxic and low-cost photocatalytic nanocomposites of 0D/2D S -scheme heterojunction composed of iron oxide and graphitic carbon nitride by a facile method. The developed facile method provides a sustainable way with a high atom economy to further enhance the photocatalytic performance of exfoliated g-C 3 N 4 . The 0D -iron oxide/2D-C 3 N 4 exhibited nearly 10 times better than bulk g-C 3 N 4 and almost 60 % better than exfoliated g-C 3 N 4 under simulated solar light irradiation. The experimental results demonstrated that the effective charge -carrier mechanism led to an improved generation of reactive oxygen species (ROSs), resulting in an impressive photocatalytic performance. A serial photocatalytic test was also conducted to understand photocatalytic reaction mechanisms with various scavengers.

    A Comparative Study on Structural, Morphological and Photocatalytic Properties of Anodically Grown Zno Nanowires Under Varying Parameters
    (Springer, 2021) Özdemir, Erdem Tevfik; Kartal, Uğur; Dikici, Tuncay; Erol, Mustafa; Yurddaskal, Metin
    In this study, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires (NWs) were successfully produced on Zn plates through electrochemical anodization in potassium bicarbonate aqueous electrolytes with different production parameters in two groups as applied voltage and anodization time. Subsequently, the ZnO NWs were annealed at 300 degrees C for 1 h in air atmosphere to increase crystallinity and remove organic residues. Structural and morphological properties were determined through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. The effect of anodization parameters on the structure of ZnO NWs and thus their photocatalytic activities were evaluated in detail by UV spectrophotometer. The results pointed out that, the most effective nanostructure on the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue was obtained in the sample that was anodized for 30 min under 30 V at room temperature with a degradation efficiency of 90.6% after 11 h. This result shows that the NW-structured ZnO materials are promising to be used as effective photocatalysts in the removal of organic pollutants by solar energy and their conversion to green compounds.
