Abstract For the first time, two-dimensional FeOCl (Fe1-xCoxOCl) doped with Co was successfully applied to the photocatalytic and photo-Fenton degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). The photocatalytic and photo-Fenton experiments showed that the degradation rates of RhB by Fe0.94Co0.06OCl are 82.6% and 98.2% within 50 min under neutral solution, room temperature and visible light. The inclusion of Co resulted in lattice imperfections on the surface of FeOCl, which was advantageous for the photogenerated electron-hole pair separation efficiency (consistent with the density functional theory calculation). Moreover, the RhB removal rate decreased from 98% to 82% during five successive cycles, showing good structural stability. Finally, based on the radical capture experiment, a potential mechanism for RhB degradation by Fe1-xCoxOCl catalyst was proposed. The idea of a synergistic mechanism for Fe1-xCoxOCl also offers a fresh concept for catalysts used in doping modification.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
