Problems solved by technology

The main reasons are: ① In this method, ZnO, Ga 2 o 3 Requires first reaction to form ZnGa 2 o 4 intermediate, and then nitridated by ammonia gas to form GaN-ZnO solid solution, resulting in the molar ratio of ZnO in the solid solution cannot exceed 33%, which limits the solar spectrum response range of the photocatalyst; Irregular particles on the micron scale have problems such as huge grain size, uneven element distribution, and excessive crystal defects, which are extremely unfavorable for the separation and transmission of photogenerated charges.
