Structural, textural and optical properties of the prepared materials are extensively studied using various physicochemical characterization tools such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-vis spectroscopy (DRS), N-2 adsorption-desorption study (BET), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), etc. BiOCl/TiO2 nanocomposites show a red shift in the light absorption as compared to that of bare BiOCl which leads to the extended absorption in visible light region. Further photocatalytic experiments for Rhodamine B and phenol degradation demonstrate that the BiOCl/TiO2 nanocomposites have superior photocatalytic properties than bare BiOCl. Improved photocatalytic performance of BiOCl/TiO2 composites is attributed to the synergistic effect between BiOCl flakes and TiO2 nanoparticles, extended visible light absorption and delayed charge recombination.&lt;/p&gt;

The photocatalysts were successfully characterized by various physicochemical techniques and their photocatalytic activities were tested towards the water oxidation reaction to produce oxygen and Cr (VI) reduction under visible light. The HRTEM confirms Ag3PO4 with a particle size of 15 nm has been deposited on BCN to construct a p-n heterojunction. The BCNS-50 absorbs more visible light in the solar spectrum as compared to other catalyst, demonstrating the ability to generate 587 mu mol h(-1)g(-1) O-2 and reduces 98% of 20 ppm Cr (VI) solution in 1 h. The lower PL intensity as well as lower arc value in case of BCNS-50 suggests the maximum e-h separation and lower charge transfer resistance across the semiconductor/electrolyte interface. The BCN sheet provides a compact heterojunction where the oxidation peak of Ag3PO4 decreases gradually and disappear in case of BCNS-50 suggesting the enhance stability of Ag3PO4 in the heterojunction. BCNS-50 could able to produce -139 and 3087.5 mu A photocurrent both in cathodic and anodic direction which is approximately 7 and 2.4 folds higher as compared to nano Ag3PO4. The generation of photocurrent in both cathodic and anodic direction confirms the formation of p-n heterojunction which further supported by Mott-Schottky analysis. Furthermore the construction of the p-n heterojunction is verified via Mott-Schottky study. DFT calculation explains the contribution of various atomic orbital of Ag3PO4 and BCN towards the formation of hybrid orbital in the heterojunction and the path for charge delocalization between them. This work may provide a limelight and alternative pathway for enhanced photocatalytic performance on construction of the p-n heterojunction in a simple way. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
