Oxygen vacancy induced superior visible-light-driven photo-catalytic performance in the BiOCl homojunction
Siying Niu, Ruoyu Zhang, Chongfeng Guo
Abstract
The black BiOCl homojunction with oxygen vacancies has a wide absorption range and results in effective separation of photo-generated electron–hole pairs, which contribute to its superior visible-light-driven photo-catalytic degradation and disinfection ability.
