Construction of Magnetic Fe₃O₄@C@Ag₃PO₄ Nanocomposites with Excellent Visible Photocatalytic Performance
Abstract:
A new magnetic Fe₃O₄@C@Ag₃PO₄ nanocomposites photocatalyst with visible light response has been prepared by solvothermal, hydrothermal and precipitation process. The photocatalyst exhibited high photocatalytic activity and stability for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB). Almost 100% of RhB was photodegraded with the assistance of magnetic Fe₃O₄@C@Ag₃PO₄ nanocomposites after 40 min, and the photocatalyst showed no obvious loss of photocatalytic activity after four times of cyclic utilization. Furthermore, the magnetic Fe₃O₄@C@Ag₃PO₄ nanocomposites can be separated by external magnetic field. Further study proved that the photogenerated holes were the main active species in the degradation process.

Microsoft Excel: Plotting Mean, SD, and SE
First, calculate the mean, SD, and SE of your data. The mean is obtained using the formula `=AVERAGE(range)`, while SD can be calculated with `=STDEV.P(range)` for a population or `=STDEV.S(range)` for a sample. SE is calculated as `=SD/SQRT(n)`, where `n` is the sample size.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
