Abstract:BiVO4 is an important n-type semiconductor used in photocatalysis due to its high capacity to absorb solar light in the 400–700 nm range, abundance, high chemical stability, non-toxicity, and low cost. However, research on physicochemical modifications to increase its catalytic activity via simple procedures is limited. In this work, the influence of different synthesis parameters, such as calcination temperatures or silver doping, on the structural and physicochemical characteristic of the BiVO4-based photoca… Show more
