    A new structure of graphene-Mg<inf>2</inf>CuSnCoO<inf>6</inf> composite bridged with gallic acid (GMG) was synthesized with a novel method. Band gap energy of the newly synthesized nanocomposite was evaluated with a laser-wavelength region and DRS method. Evaluation and analysis were based on the relationship among XRD, HRTEM, XPS, Raman scattering, and computer simulated model structure. Changes in the structure of graphene or graphene-based composite were associated with location changes of the valence band and the conduction band. Electron density was used to confirm the number of electrons by computer simulation. Finally, such graphene-Mg<inf>2</inf>CuSnCoO<inf>6</inf>-gallic acid nanocomposite was used for photocatalytic CO<inf>2</inf> reduction into methanol. Under UV-light irradiation, the highest methanol yield was 5.576% with 0.6 g of scavenger. This work might offer a promising strategy for measuring band gap energies of different types of semiconductors.
