“…However, bismuth chloride oxide is a broad band gap photocatalytic material with a bandwidth of 3.5 eV, which limits the photoresponse range of bismuth chloride oxide to the UV region. For the modification of bismuth oxychloride, doping, − recombination, − and loading methods are mostly used. These modification methods require long synthesis times, high reaction temperatures, and complex equipment .…”

Gray bismuth chloride nanosheets with a highly enhanced electric field intensity were prepared by a simple and efficient method. Their energy gap is reduced to 2.35 eV. The prepared nanosheets show high photocatalytic activity for the degradation of rhodamine B under visible light. The resulting samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, specific surface area analysis, electrochemical analysis, electron paramagnetic resonance, and UV–vis spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activity of prepared BiOCl was evaluated by the degradation of RhB. The prepared BiOCl sample (0.5 g/L) could completely degrade RhB (10 mg/L) within 10 min, and its visible photocatalytic activity was 80 times that of the original white BiOCl. Superoxide radicals were the main active substance involved in organic degradation.
