Abstract
Highly efficient g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> based MoS<sub>2</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanorod embedded novel (g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>/MoS<sub>2</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanocomposites were effectively fabricated by a hydrothermal–calcination method. The schematic depiction is illustrating the plausible mechanism of charge separation and degradation of pollutants under visible-light exposure by a g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>/MoS<sub>2</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> photocatalyst.
