Multiply structural optimized strategies for bismuth oxyhalide photocatalysis and their environmental application

Bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX) photocatalysts have attracted tremendous attentions due to their unique optical and electronic properties. However, pristine BiOX suffered from inherent drawbacks and unsatisfactory photocatalytic performance. Interest in engineering layered structure BiOX for efficient environment remediation has grown exponentially. Recent studies tend to focus on alloying, bismuth-rich strategies, defect introduction, element doping....
