Double element co-doped carbon quantum dots enhance photocatalytic efficiency
E-Mail IMAGE: Photocatalytic process of phosphorus and nitrogen co-doped carbon quantum dots (PNCQDs)/TiO2 nanosheets. Due to the quantum wells created by synergy between N and P elements, photogenerated electrons can be localized... view more Credit: Authors In a paper published in NANO, researchers from Nanjing Tech University proposed a theory which attributes the photocatalytic efficiency enhancement of Phosphorus and Nitrogen co-doped CQDs (PNCQDs)/TiO 2 nanosheets composite photocatalyst to the quantum wells of PNCQDs. Doped carbon quantum dots (CQDs) have been popular nano...
