Preparation of Nanowire like WSe2-Graphene Nanocomposite for Photocatalytic Reduction of CO2 into CH3OH with the Presence of Sacrificial Agents

Abstract A nanowire-like WSe2-graphene catalyst was prepared via ultra-sonication and was tested in terms of the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 into CH3OH under irradiation with UV/visible light. The prepared nano-composite was further characterized via XRD, SEM, TEM, Raman and XPS. The photocurren...
