Enhanced photocatalytic activity of BiVO4 coupled with iron-based complexes for water oxidation under visible light irradiation

Abstract

[Fe2(TPA)2(μ-O)Cl2]2+ (TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) was investigated as a pre-catalyst, and greatly enhanced the photocatalytic water oxidation activity of BiVO4. An extremely high oxygen yield of 99.1% and apparent quantum yield of 44.3% were obtained in the BiVO4–NaIO3 photocatalytic water oxidation system.
