Synthetic loosely packed monoclinic BiVO4 nanoellipsoids with novel multiresponses to visible light, trace gas and temperature†
Abstract
A novel multiresponsive function of monoclinic BiVO4 has been put forward for the first time, and loosely packed monoclinic BiVO4 nanoellipsoids with many exposed crystal planes have been designed and synthesized in order to improve their smart multiresponses to visible light, trace gas and temperature.
