Improving Photocatalytic Performance from Bi2WO6@MoS2/graphene Hybrids via Gradual Charge Transferred Pathway

Abstract The charge transfer from the main catalyst to the cocatalyst is a key factor to enhance catalytic activity for photocatalytic nanocomposite materials. In order to enhance the charge transfer between Bi2WO6 and graphene, we inlet MoS2 as a “stepping-stone” into Bi2WO6 and graphene. Here, we...
