Bandgap-engineered In <sub>2</sub> S <sub>3</sub> quantum dots anchored on oxygen-doped g-C <sub>3</sub> N <sub>4</sub> : forging a dynamic n–n heterojunction for enhanced persulfate activation and degradation of metronidazole
A novel n–n heterojunction catalyst was fabricated by anchoring In 2 S 3 QDs onto oxygen-doped g-C 3 N 4 , achieving 98.17 ± 1.53% efficiency in degrading metronidazole via persulfate activation under visible light irradiation within 25 min.
