Abstract
. The introduction of a suitable amount of Fe to the photocatalyst can facilitate the separation of electron-hole pairs generated upon light irradiation, inhibit their recombination efficiently, and prominently expand the light absorption region, thus leading to higher photocatalytic activity.
