Synthesis and internal electric field dependent photoreactivity of Bi3O4Cl single-crystalline nanosheets with high {001} facet exposure percentages

Abstract

We prepared Bi3O4Cl single-crystalline nanosheets with high {001} facet exposure percentages and demonstrated that their photoreactivity strongly depended on the magnitude of the internal electric field (IEF), which was correlated with the {001} facet exposure percentage. More {001} facet exposure could induce the generation of stronger IEF, which favored the photogenerated charge separation and transfer, and thus enhancing the photoreactivity.
