Selective Preparation of Monoclinic and Tetragonal BiVO4with Scheelite Structure and Their Photocatalytic Properties

Tokunaga, Saimi, Kato, Hideki, Kudo, Akihiko·2001·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

BiVO 4 powder with scheelite structure was obtained by hydrolyzing a nitric acid solution of Bi(NO 3 ) 3 and Na 3 VO 4 with bases (Na 2 CO 3 and NaHCO 3 ) at room temperature. Tetragonal BiVO 4 of a high-temperature form was obtained after 4.5 h of preparation time while monoclinic BiVO 4 was done after 46 h. Although the structure and the band gap of tetragonal BiVO 4 with scheelite structure were similar to those of monoclinic BiVO 4, the photocatalytic activity of the tetragonal BiVO 4 for O 2 evolution from an aqueous AgNO 3 solution under visible light irradiation was negligible. In contrast, the monoclinic BiVO 4 showed high photocatalytic activity. Distortion of a Bi−O polyhedron by a 6s 2 lone pair of Bi 3+ plays an important role for high photocatalytic activity of the monoclinic BiVO 4 under visible light irradiation.

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.
