摘要
Cu2O/CeO2 heterojunction photocatalysts with different concentrations of Cu2O were prepared by a soak-reduction method using glucose as the reductant, and characterized by XRD, EDS, XPS and UV-vis DRS spectroscopy. The photocatalytic efficiency of the Cu2O/CeO2 composite was evaluated by degradation of Acid Orange 7 in water under visible light (lambda>420 nm) irradiation. The Cu2O/CeO2 composite showed stronger visible light absorption capacity and higher photocatalytic activity than pure CeO2. The sample with a Cu2O / CeO2 molar ratio of 0.029 presented the best photocatalytic activity, which was 20% higher than that of pure CeO2. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
