| Abstract | The $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ composite photocatalysts with various weight percents of ZnO were synthsized by a simple calcination process. The photocatalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction ( PXRD ), scanning electron microscopy ( SEM ), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy ( HR-TEM ), UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy ( UV-vis ), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy ( XPS ) and thermogravimetric analysis ( TGA ). The PXRD and HR-TEM results show that the composite materials consist of hexagonal wurzite phase ZnO and $g-C_{3}N_{4}.$ The solid-state UV-vis diffuse reflection spectra show that the absorption edge of the composite materials shifts toward the lower energy region and to longer wavelengths in comparison with pure ZnO and $g-C_{3}N_{4}.$ Remarkably, the photocatalytic activity of $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ composites has been demonstrated, via photodegradation of Methyl Orange (MO) and p-nitrophenol experiments. The photocatalytic activity of $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ for photodegradation of Methyl Orange and p-nitrophenol under visible light irradiation was increased by over 3 and 6 times, respectively, to be much higher than that of single-phase $g-C_{3}N_{4},$ clearly demonstrating a synergistic effect between ZnO and $g-C_{3}N_{4}.$ The concentrations of $Zn^{2+}$ in $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ system after a photocatalytic reaction at various reaction times were found to be much lower than those for a ZnO system under the same reaction conditions, indicating that the $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ composite possesses excellent long-term stability for a photocatalytic reaction in aqueous solutions. Furthermore, a synergistic photocatalysis mechanism between ZnO and $g-C_{3}N_{4}$ was proposed based on the photodegradation results. Such obviously improved performance of $g-C_{3}N_{4}–ZnO$ can be ascribed mainly to the enhancement of electron–hole separations at the interface of ZnO and $g-C_{3}N_{4}.$ |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
