The direct Z-scheme Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x/ZnO_1-yN_y heterojunction photocatalyst was successfully prepared via a microwave-assisted solvothermal method. N atoms were introduced in to the lattices of Zn₂SnO₄ and ZnO by replacing O atoms to form Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x and ZnO_1-yN_y units, resulting in the formation of N impurity levels at the top of valence band (VB). The transformation from Ⅰ-type to Ⅱ-type, and then to Z-scheme heterojunction of Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x/ZnO_1-yN_y was attributed to the rearrangement of interface charge distribution induced by the different work functions and the construction of build-in electron field. The photocatalytic activity of heterojunction photocatalyst was evaluated by the photo-degradation of RhB under UV light irradiation. The degradation rate of RhB over Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x/ZnO_1-yN_y heterojunction photocatalyst was 1.40~1.43 times higher than that of two pure Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x samples. Methylene blue, methyl orange and salicylic acid could be degraded over Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x/ZnO_1-yN_y heterojunction photocatalyst, which also exhibited good cyclic stability. The high photocatalytic activity of Zn₂SnO_4-xN_x/ZnO_1-yN_y heterojunction photocatalyst was ascribed to the synergistic effects between Z-scheme heterojunction and double impurity levels due to the enhanced redox ability and improved separation efficiency of photoinduced charge carriers.
