Copper doped graphene-TiO2 nanocomposite were prepared via sol-gel process and embedded onto ITO coated glass films using electrophoretic deposition technique. The catalyst films were used for photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) of CO2 induced under simulated solar irradiation. Triethanolamine (TEA) aqueous solution was used as an electrolyte in this experiment. CO2 capture in the electrolyte solution plays vital role in the PEC process and in this case, the effect of TEA was investigated. Although the absorption rate of CO2 is lower in TEA solution than primary or secondary amines, CO2 loading was found higher in the solution. Less reactivity of TEA towards CO2 was also observed. The impedance results showed that, increased concentration of TEA in aqueous solution helps to reduce charge transfer resistance and thus facilitates CO2 reduction process.

Simulated solar irradiation of wool, silk, bovine serum albumin and apomyoglobin in the presence of radioactively labelled fluorescent whitening agents of the bistriazinylaminostilbene and pyrazoline types results in the irreversible binding of radioactivity to the protein. This photochemical reaction occurs both in the solid state and in aqueous solution, and is believed to result in the formation of a covalent bond between the whitener (or a photodecomposition product) and the protein.

A novel β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) grafted titanium dioxide (TiO2/β-CD) was synthesized through photo-induced self assembly methods, and its structure was characterized. The TiO2/β-CD hybrid nanomaterial showed high photoactivity under visible light irradiation (λ  400 nm and/or λ  420 nm) and simulated solar irradiation (λ  365 nm). Photodegradation of rhodamine B followed the Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics model. The initial rate R0 of rhodamine B degradation increased by 4.6, 2.4 and 1.5 times in the irradiation conditions of λ  420 nm, λ  400 nm and λ  365 nm, respectively. β-CD increased the lifetimes of the excited states of the unreactive guests and facilitated the electron transfer from the excited dye to the TiO2 conduction band, which enhanced the dye pollutant degradation.

ABSTRACTA series of Ca1-xSrxS:Eu2+y mol% phosphors were synthesized with solid state reactions and with various Ca/Sr ratio and Eu2+ doping concentrations. The influences of the lattice composition and the Eu2+ doping level on photoluminescent properties were analyzed. With doping concentrations between 0.1 to 3 mol%, concentration quenching takes place leading to the decrease of luminance; the emission maxima are also red-shifted. Further, this work reports enhanced photosynthetic activities of intact spinach leaves due to spectral modification of simulated solar irradiation by one synthesized phosphor (Ca0.4Sr0.6S:Eu1 mol%). The CO2 assimilation rates of intact spinach leaves were monitored with an effective homemade photosynthesis measurement system with controlled light conditions. The phosphor could efficiently convert the photosynthetically less active green part of the solar spectrum into the red, with a broad-band red emission centered at 650 nm and a halfband-width of 68 nm, giving an excellent match with the absorption spectrum of spinach chloroplasts. By careful referencing the photon flux, we found an enhanced photosynthetic activities by about 30 % due to the emission of the phosphor.
