▎ 摘　　要

Leaf-like InVO4/BiVO4 nanostructures with sizes of 2-5 mu m were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method. Graphene quantum dots (QD-RGO) were then deposited onto the surfaces of the leaf-like InVO4/BiVO4 crystals through a facile deposition-precipitation technique. Under visible light irradiation (lambda > 420 nm), the QD-RGO/InVO4/BiVO4 photocatalyst degraded rhodamine B (Rh B) efficiently and displayed a much higher photocatalytic activity than pure BiVO4, InVO4, RGO/InVO4, RGO/BiVO4 or an InVO4/BiVO4 hybrid. The InVO4/BiVO4 photocatalyst with 3 wt% of QD-RGO exhibited the highest photocatalytic efficiency. The quenching effects of different scavengers demonstrated that O(2)(center dot-)played a major role in Rh B degradation. It was elucidated that the excellent photocatalytic activity of QD-RGO/InVO4/BiVO4 for the degradation of Rh B under visible light (lambda > 420 nm) can be ascribed to the extended absorption in the visible light region resulting from the QD-RGO loading, the high specific surface area, and the efficient separation of photogenerated electrons and holes through the QD-RGO/InVO4/BiVO4 heterostructure.
