Heterojunction constructed from ZIF-8-on-MIL-68(Ga) precursor for photocatalytic CO<sub>2</sub> reduction
Herein, a ZIF-8-on-MIL-68(Ga) precursor derived ZnGa<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>/ZnO heterojunction can promote charge separation and has a strong photoredox ability, while decoration with a Au cocatalyst can lower the Gibbs free energy barrier of the rate-determining step in the photocatalytic CO<sub>2</sub> reduction reaction, leading to a high CH<sub>4</sub> yield of 21.1 μmol g<sup>-1</sup> h<sup>-1</sup> in pure water without any sacrificial reagent.
