| Abstract: | Mo-doped WO3 nanowires were fabricated by a hydrothermal method in the presence of K2SO4. The physical properties of prepared nanowires were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that the obtained products are nanowires with diameters ranging between 10 and 20 nm, and lengths of about 600 nm. Its photoactivity was evaluated through the photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution. Effects of the molybdenum concentration on the photoactivity of the obtained samples were investigated detailedly. The experimental results indicated that the Mo-doping enhanced the photoactivity of WO3 nanowires. |
