研究目的
To synthesize defective BiOBr nanosheets with ultrathin thickness and surface confined pits for enhanced photocatalytic activity towards pollutants removal and oxygen evolution from water.
研究成果
Defective BiOBr nanosheets with ultrathin thickness and surface pit defects were successfully synthesized, showing enhanced photocatalytic activity for pollutant degradation and oxygen evolution. The improved performance was attributed to better light harvesting, higher charge separation efficiency, and increased active sites. The study provides insights into the design of ultrathin nanomaterials for photocatalytic applications.
研究不足
The study focuses on the synthesis and photocatalytic evaluation of defective BiOBr nanosheets, with limited discussion on the scalability of the synthesis method and the long-term stability under practical environmental conditions.
