Synthesis of the Graphitic Carbon Nitride/Iron Oxide Nanocomposite, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sadrnezhad, Khatiboleslam (Supervisor)
Abstract
The g-C3N4/Fe2O3 nanocomposite was produced by the combustion synthesis. The product was characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller study (BET), Ultraviolet-visible analysis (UV-vis) and photoluminescence measurement (PL). Effect of iron nitrate on stability and photocurrent density under simulated visible-light irradiation was determined. The highest photocurrent density obtained (4.25 μA/Cm2) was twelve times the pure g-C3N4. This improvement was due to a bandgap decrease, the specific surface area increase, reduction of the electron-hole recombination, and...
