Highly Efficient and Exceptionally Durable CO2 Photoreduction to Methanol over Freestanding Defective Single-Unit-Cell Bismuth Vanadate Layers
Abstract
Unearthing an ideal model for disclosing the role of defect sites in solar CO 2 reduction remains a great challenge. Here, freestanding gram-scale single-unit-cell o -BiVO 4 layers are successfully synthesized for the first time. Positron annihilation spectrometry and X-ray fluorescence unveil their distinct vanadium vacancy concentrations. Density functional calculations reveal that the introduction of vanadium vacancies brings a new defect level and higher hole concentration near Fermi level, resulting in increased photoabsorption and superior electronic conductivity. The higher surface photovoltage intensity of single-unit-cell o -BiVO 4 layers with rich vanadium vacancies ensures their higher carriers separation efficiency, further confirmed by the increased carriers lifetime from 74.5 to 143.6 ns revealed by time-resolved fluorescence emission decay spectra. As a result, single-unit-cell o -BiVO 4 layers with rich vanadium vacancies exhibit a high methanol formation rate up to 398.3 μmol g –1 h –1 and an apparent quantum efficiency of 5.96% at 350 nm, much larger than that of single-unit-cell o -BiVO 4 layers with poor vanadium vacancies, and also the former’s catalytic activity proceeds without deactivation even after 96 h. This highly efficient and spectrally stable CO 2 photoconversion performances hold great promise for practical implementation of solar fuel production.

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.
