Recent Advances of Epitaxial BiVO4 Thin Film: Preparation and Physical and Photoelectrochemical Properties

Abstract: Semiconductor photocatalysis has two important applications: environmental remediation and H 2 production. Bismuth vanadate has attracted great interests as an ideal candidate for use as high-performance photocatalysts for visible light-driven water splitting and photoanode in photoelectrochemical cells. Single crystal film is invaluable to deepen the fundamental understanding of materials. The object of this article was to provide a brief review on the advances in the preparation of epitaxial BiVO 4 thin film… Show more

“…In a review article by Zhang and Li, molecular beam epitaxy, pulsed layer deposition, and chemical vapor deposition are described in detail as the three main techniques for preparing BiVO 4 thin films. 67 As a typical bismuth-based photocatalyst, BiVO 4 is a nontoxic semiconductor photocatalyst. 68 It has three crystal phases: neptic scheelite (s-t), monoclinic scheelite (s-m) and tetragonal zircon (z-t).…”

“…This trend has promoted the research on the growth of epitaxial BiVO 4 thin film photoanodes to understand the basic characteristics of BiVO 4 in PEC water splitting [19][20][21][22]. Epitaxial BVO thin films were prepared by molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) [23]. The growth model of epitaxial BVO on yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ (001)) was reported as adsorption-controlled, 3D island growth model, namely Volmer-Weber growth model [24].…”
