Abstract:Despite its considerable potential to address energy and environmental challenges, the practical application of photocatalysis is restricted by the limited efficiency of the photocatalysts. This research aims to improve the photocatalytic efficiency of Bi 2 MoO 6 by adjusting the internal electric field within the crystal lattice via Te doping. Te-Bi 2 MoO 6 nanosheets were prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method. Although the band gap energy and the long-range crystal structure are not affected upon doping… 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.
