Plasmonic Au Nanoparticles/KCa2Nb3O10 nanosheets 0D/2D heterojunctions with enhanced photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride

Exploration of an effective strategy to enhance the visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity of wide band gap metal oxide semiconductors is of great importance. In this work, plasmonic Au nanoparticles/KCa2Nb3O10 nanosheets 0D/2D heterojunctions were constructed by a facile precipitation–calcination process. In these heterojunctions, Au nanoparticles not only act a photosensitizer to harvest the visible light but also assist in the charge...
