초록
Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO 형태의 복합체 광촉매를 침전법으로 제조하였고, 이들 화합물의 특성을 XRD, UV-vis DRS, PL 및 FE-SEM 등을 이용하여 조사하였다. 그리고 가시광선 조사 하에서의 로다민 B 분해반응에 대한 광촉매로서의 활성을 조사하였다. ZnO와는 달리 Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO는 자외선 뿐만 아니라 가시광선 영역의 빛도 효율적으로 흡수하며 특히 Cd0.5Zn0.5S의 함량 증가에 따라 가시광선 영역의 빛에 대한 흡광도도 증가하였다. 또한 Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO에 있어서 Cd0.5Zn0.5S의 함량이 증가할수록 최종 입자들의 크기가 작아지고 그 결과 비 표면적이 증가하였다. 로다민 B의 광분해 반응에 있어서는 Cd0.5Zn0.5S 함량이 높은 Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO 촉매일수록 상대적으로 높은 광촉매 활성을 보여주었다. 그러므로 Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO 광촉매의 활성에 있어서는 촉매의 흡착능력 뿐만 아니라 Cd0.5Zn0.5S와 ZnO 사이의 heterojunction 효과도 중요하게 작용하는 것으로 보인다.
Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO composite photocatalysts were synthesized using the precipitation method and characterized by XRD, UV-vis DRS, PL and FE-SEM. Photocatalytic activities of the materials were evaluated by measuring the degradation of rhodamine B under visible light irradiation. Contrary to ZnO, Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO materials absorb visible light as well as UV and their absorption intensities in visible region increased with increasing the Cd0.5Zn0.5S amount. The increment in the Cd0.5Zn0.5S content in Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO also leads to reducing the particle size and consequently increasing the specific surface area. Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO materials with the larger Cd0.5Zn0.5S content showed the higher activity in the photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B under visible light irradiation. Therefore, the heterojunction effect between Cd0.5Zn0.5S and ZnO as well as the adsorption capacity seems to give important contributions to the photocatalytic activity of the Cd0.5Zn0.5S/ZnO.
