Abstract

Present research is giving attention to fabricate heterojunction nanocomposite structures. In this current study, Ce3+-doped TiO2@MoS2 nanocomposites were prepared by hydrothermal synthetic route. Structural and morphological studies of Ce3+-doped TiO2@MoS2 nanocomposites were examined by various characterization techniques. PXRD results revealed that Ce3+ ions were successfully doped into TiO2 and concurrently attached with MoS2 to get heterojunction nanostructures. The effect of MoS2 and Ce3+ ions on TiO2 host matrix for the photocatalytic degradation of direct green (DG) dye was evaluated and the photocatalytic performances of Ce3+:TiO2@MoS2 nanocomposite confirm that it is two times greater than that of MoS2 and Ce3+:TiO2. Also, the prepared nanocomposite was utilized for cyclic voltammetry studies and found good electrochemical behaviour for battery and super capacitors. This research work presents a highly efficient nanocomposite to decompose the organic dyes that support to design the new structure for environmental pollution remediation and good electrode for super capacitor and battery applications.
