AB  - The design of highly efficient photoca talysts for clean energy production and 
      environmental remediation are the grand challenges of scientific research. 
      Herein, TiO(2)@MIL53Fe and CeO(2)@MIL53Fe composite photocatalysts are 
      synthesized via solvothermal technique. The SEM and TEM micrographs reveal that 
      TiO(2) and CeO(2) nanoparticles are vertically grown onto the surface of MIL53Fe 
      MOF. Further, HRTEM micrograph confirmed the formation of heterojunction. It has 
      been investigated that the resultant TiO(2)@MIL53Fe and CeO(2)@MIL53Fe 
      photocatalysts exhibit remarkably improved visible light activities for H(2) 
      production and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) degradation in comparison to the bare 
      MIL53Fe photocatalyst. The enhanced photoactivities of the fabricated 
      TiO(2)@MIL53Fe and CeO(2)@MIL53Fe photocatalysts are attributed to significantly 
      promoted charge separation as confirmed via the surface photo voltage (SPV) and 
      photoluminescence (PL) results. Further, the photocatalysts exhibit high 
      stability and reusability as confirmed via the recyclable tests. This work will 
      promote the design of MOF-based efficient photocatalysts for clean energy 
      production and environment purification.
