Synthesis of novel p-n heterojunction photocatalyst from ZnO nanorod and Cu2O nanoparticles for degradation of Paraoxon insecticide under visible light irradiation
In the current work, a novel ZnO-Cu2O heterojunction was synthesized from ZnO nanorods and Cu2O nanoparticles via hydrothermal route and was applied for the first time as a visible light active photocatalyst for decomposition of Paraoxon insecticide. Crystallinity, shape and size of particles, and o...
