Facet-Dependent Catalytic Activity of Nanosheet-Assembled Bismuth Oxyiodide Microspheres in Degradation of Bisphenol A
Abstract
Photocatalysts with different exposed facets often exhibit different photochemical performances, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, we synthesized two nanosheet-assembled bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) microspheres with exposed (110) and (001) facets, respectively, to further investigate facet-dependent photocatalytic activity. Our experimental results showed that the BiOI microspheres with exposed (110) facets exhibited much greater catalytic activity than the BiOI microspheres with exposed (001) facets in the degradation of bisphenol A under visible light irradiation. Density functional theory calculation revealed that the (110) facets can adsorb a greater amount of O2 and, thus, form more O2(•-) and (•)OH radicals than the (001) facets. The electron spin resonance spectroscopy and radical scavenging experiments verified that the BiOI microspheres with exposed (110) facets could produce a greater amount of O2(•-) radicals than the BiOI microspheres with exposed (001) facets, and more importantly, between the two BiOI products, only the BiOI microspheres with exposed (110) facets could generate (•)OH radicals directly. The facet-dependent radical formation mechanisms were previously unidentified. The findings of this study may have important implications for the understanding of the facet-dependent photochemical performance of photocatalysts and the design of novel catalytic materials with inorganic nanostructures.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
