Abstract:Silver vanadates are promising visible-light-responded photocatalysts with suitable bandgap for solar absorption. However, the easy recombination of photogenerated carriers limits their performance. To overcome this obstacle, a novel 2D graphene oxide (GO) modified α-AgVO3 nanorods (GO/α-AgVO3) photocatalyst was designed herein to improve the separation of photocarriers. The GO/α-AgVO3 was fabricated through a facile in-suit coprecipitation method at room temperature. It was found that the as-prepared 0.5 wt.%… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
