摘要:
Bandgap engineering of photocatalysts is a common approach to achieving high effective utilization of solar resource. However, the difficulty in achieving bandgap narrowing and high activity simultaneously seems to be irreconcilable via the traditional modification pathway. Herein, we have substituted iodine for a fraction of bromine atoms in BiOBr to overcome this restriction and provided some deep-seated insights into how the substitution boosts the photocatalytic properties. The substituted BiOBr
