Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, photocatalysts represented by semiconductors such as titanium dioxide and cuprous oxide have been widely studied and applied by people. Their advantages such as simple preparation methods, low-cost raw materials used, environmental protection, and superior photocatalytic performance have been favored by scientists for a long time. However, based on the wide band gap of these semiconductors, the electrons in the full band can only be excited to the conduction band by the ultraviolet light in the sunlight, and the actual ultraviolet light irradiating the earth accounts for only about 5%, and the remaining about 49% % of visible light and 46% of near-infrared light cannot be absorbed and utilized

Abstract

The invention provides a photocatalyst material for absorbing a full sunlight spectrum and a preparation method thereof and relates to the technical field of composite micro-nano materials. The material uses an upconversion material NaYF4: Yb,Er as a template, and the surface of the template is sequentially modified with TiO2 and Ag nanoparticles. Firstly, the upconversion material is obtained through hydro-thermal synthesis reaction, then is used as the template and is successively modified with the TiO2 and Ag nanoparticles through reduction reaction, and the UC / TiO2 / Ag composite micro-nano photocatalyst material is obtained. The photocatalyst material retains the advantage of efficiently absorbing ultraviolet and visible wavebands of high-energy excitation of a traditional photocatalyst material, meanwhile can also convert long-wave radiation of an infrared waveband in sunlight into visible waveband shortwave radiation which can be directly absorbed by the material, the sunlight utilization rate is further improved, full spectrum utilization of sunlight is achieved, and the photocatalyst material is hopeful to serve as a photocatalyst for sunlight-based efficient catalytic degradation of organic pollutants.
