Nanosized cuprous oxide (Cu₂O) was used to modify the surface of γ-Bi₂MoO₆, resulting in highly efficient visible-light-responsive Cu₂O/γ-Bi₂MoO₆ composite photocatalysts. The obtained photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum (UV-Vis-DRS) to determine their phase structures, micromorphologies, and light absorption properties. The important role of surface-modified Cu₂O in improving the photocatalytic activity of γ-Bi₂MoO₆ under visible light irradiation was studied using the degradation of methylene blue (MB). The results showed that Cu₂O nanoparticles with average size of ~10 nm modified the surface of the γ-Bi₂MoO₆. The nanoparticles delivered both an obvious red-shift of absorption threshold and intensity of the γ-Bi₂MoO₆, as well as enhanced separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, thereby leading to significant enhancement in photocatalytic activity. When the amount of Cu₂O was 1.5%, the photocatalytic activity of the Cu₂O/γ-Bi₂MoO₆ composite photocatalyst was 6.4 times higher than that of pristine γ-Bi₂MoO₆.
