Largely limited by the high dissociation energy of the O—O bond, the photocatalytic molecular oxygen activation is highly challenged, which restrains the application of photocatalytic oxidation technology for atmospheric pollutants removal. Herein, we design and fabricate the InP QDs/g-C₃N₄ compounds. The introduction of InP QDs promotes the charge transfer within the interface resulting in the effective separation of photo-generated carriers. Furthermore, InP QDs greatly facilitates the activation of molecular oxygen and promote the formation of O₂^·- under visible-light illumination. These conclusions are identified by experimental and calculation results. Hence, NO can be combined with the O₂^·- to form O—O—N—O intermediate to direct conversion into NO₃^-. As a result, the NO removal ratio of g-C₃N₄ has a onefold increase after InP QDs loaded and the generation of NO₂ is effectively inhibited. This work may provide a strategy to design highly efficient materials for molecular oxygen activation.
