In order to efficiently degrade organic pollutants in water, a new photocatalyst Sm₂FeSbO₇ was prepared by a solid-state reaction method for the first time. The construction and photocatalytic property of Sm₂FeSbO₇ had been characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope and UV-visible spectrometer. Sm₂FeSbO₇ crystallized with a pyrochlore-type structure, a cubic crystal system and a space group Fd3m. The lattice parameter a of Sm₂FeSbO₇ was 1.035 434 nm. The band gap of Sm₂FeSbO₇ was estimated to be 2.46 eV. The photocatalytic degradation of indigo carmine was accomplished under visible light irradiation with Sm₂FeSbO₇ as a catalyst compared with nitrogen-doped TiO₂. The results indicated that Sm₂FeSbO₇ displayed higher photocatalytic activity compared with nitrogen-doped TiO₂ for the photocatalytic degradation of indigo carmine under visible light irradiation. The reduction of the total organic carbon, the gradual formation of inorganic products, SO₄^2- and NO₃^-, and the evolution of CO₂ revealed the continuous mineralization of indigo carmine during the photocatalytic process. Some intermediate products which came from the photocatalytic degradation of indigo carmine were detected, such as o-nitrobenzoic acid and o-nitrobenzaldehyde, and a possible photocatalytic degradation path of indigo carmine was acquired.
