Abstract
Doping has emerged as a prominent strategy to promote the separation of photogenerated charge carriers, thereby boosting the overall photocatalytic performance. In this work, Fe-doped MoO3 nanosheets were fabricated via a solvothermal route. The intrinsic oxygen vacancies (OVs) in MoO3–x induce a local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect, while Fe doping further refines the nanosheet dimensions (reducing the lateral size from ∼2 μm to ∼500 nm), and acts synergistically with the OVs to facilitate the separation and migration of photogenerated charge carriers. Photocatalytic tests reveal that under visible-light irradiation, the optimized 3-Fe-MoO3–x sample exhibits degradation efficiencies of 93.77% for…
