Abstract
within only 1 h under visible light due to their smaller particle size, larger surface area, low recombination rate and greater ROS generation with oxygen vacancies. This research suggests that Mg-doped ZTO nanoparticles might be a viable and highly effective photocatalytic antibacterial agent candidate for future commercialization in healthcare and environmental applications.
