چکیده

BiOCl nanosheets (BiOCl NSs) were synthesized by hydrolyzing a hierarchical flowerlike molecular precursor (Bi(n)(Tu)(x)Cl(3n), Tu = thiourea). High photoactivity of {001} facets of BiOCl NSs was observed, and the mechanism was discussed.

Oxygen vacancy induced selective silver deposition on the {001} facets of BiOCl single-crystalline nanosheets for enhanced Cr(VI) and sodium pentachlorophenate removal under visible light.

We demonstrate that the high oxygen density characteristic of BiOCl {001} facets ensures the fast generation of oxygen vacancies in ethylene glycol under microwave irradiation, resulting in in situ nucleation and growth of Ag on the {001} facets of BiOCl single-crystalline nanosheets. The resulting Ag selectively deposited BiOCl single-crystalline nanosheets exhibit much higher reactivity and s...

Sustainable molecular oxygen activation with oxygen vacancies on the {001} facets of BiOCl nanosheets under solar light.

We demonstrate that oxygen vacancies on the {001} facets of BiOCl nanosheets can more sustainably activate molecular oxygen for organic pollutant removal under solar light than the TiO₂ counterparts. The oxygen vacancies on the {001} facets of BiOCl nanosheets are effectively refreshed by UV light, and are also responsible for the efficient utilization of visible light to activate molecular oxy...

Synthesis of nano-sized anatase TiO2 with reactive {001} facets using lamellar protonated titanate as precursor.

Nano-sized anatase TiO(2) with exposed {001} facets was synthesized from lamellar protonated titanate precursor. Owing to small size (ca. 11 nm) and high surface area (155 m(2) g(-1)), the crystals with 26.1% {001} facets exhibited markedly superior photoactivity to reference ca. 76 nm anatase TiO(2) nanosheets with 88.4% {001} facets.

Nanosheet-constructed porous BiOCl with dominant {001} facets for superior photosensitized degradation.

Porous BiOCl micro-flowers constructed from ultrathin nanosheets with nearly 100% {001} facets exposed were selectively prepared. The exposed {001} facets terminated with a high density of oxygen atoms and are not only favorable for the adsorption of the cationic dye RhB but also can accumulate the photogenerated electrons injected from excited RhB. These electrons can be captured by O(2) and t...

Facet-dependent solar ammonia synthesis of BiOCl nanosheets via a proton-assisted electron transfer pathway.

Under the pressure of a fossil fuels shortage and global climate change, solar ammonia synthesis and the need to develop N2 fixation under mild conditions is becoming more urgent need; however, their intrinsic mechanisms still remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrate that the kinetic inertia of N2 can be overcome using oxygen vacancies (OVs) of BiOCl as the catalytic centers to create lower energ...
