“…[4] Therefore, research interest in highly visible-light-active photoelectrodes has never ceased. [5][6][7] Triclinic ferric vanadate (FeVO 4 ), a ternary Fe-based metal oxide, which consists of abundant earth elements, is reported as a n-type semiconductor that possesses a favorable band gap around 2.0-2.1 eV that allows absorption of visible light up to ~600 nm. [8][9][10] This makes it able to deliver a theoretical possible photocurrent density of ~12.9 mA cm À 2 and corresponding solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of ~15.9 % for solar water splitting.…”

Crystalline FeVO 4 nanopolyhedron (FVO NPH) photoelectrodes are successfully prepared by using an in situ solid-state transformation from hydrothermal FeOOH films via adding vanadium precursor and following thermal treatments. The FVO NPH photoelectrodes possess uniformly dispersed polyhedral nanocrystals that directly grow on the conductive substrate with tunable film thicknesses. The unique morphology enables an outstanding photo-electrocatalytic performance, and the optimized FVO NPH photoelectrode, which was annealed at 550°C for 4 h with a film thickness of~560 nm, exhibits excellent photocurrent densities of~0.47 and~0.68 mA cm À 2 at 1.0 and 1.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl, respectively. After decorating CoPi co-catalyst, FVO/CoPi shows a highly efficient water splitting performance with O 2 and H 2 evolution rates of 7.53 and 15.32 μmol cm À 2 h À 1 , respectively, which are~1.88 and~1.80 times, respectively, of these of the FVO NPH. The proposed photoelectrodes also show excellently chemical and physical stabilities in solar water splitting. This is the first time reported the preparation of wellorganized nanostructured FeVO 4 films, which warrants further optimization studies on morphologies and compositions of FeVO 4 -based photoelectrodes.

“…The effective transport of photogenerated carriers at the heterogeneous interface plays a significant role in improving the photocatalytic activity. 141 Inspired by this, Prof. Wu et al also constructed several heterojunction photocatalysts for photocatalytic bacteria inactivation. 142–144 They constructed RP/ZnO heterojunction films to drive ROS production and improve the photothermal performance of solar energy to achieve rapid sterilization under sunlight and LED light.…”

“…Zhou et al utilized an Ag 3 PO 4 semiconductor to design a heterojunction system with Ti-based MOF. Although Ag 3 PO 4 has a narrow bandgap (2.45 eV), it suffers from unsatisfactory photostability under exposure to UV and visible lights, as well as poor chemical stability in aqueous media, which restricts its development in photocatalytic processes .…”

There has been a direct correlation between the rate of industrial development and the spread of pollution on Earth, particularly in the last century. The organic and inorganic pollutants generated from industrial activities have created serious risks to human life and the environment. The concept of sustainability has emerged to tackle the environmental issues in developing chemical-based industries. However, pollutants have continued to be discharged to water resources, and finding appropriate techniques for the removal and remedy of wastewater is in high demand. Chromium is one of the high-risk heavy metals in industrial wastewaters that should be removed via physical adsorption and/or transformed into less hazardous chemicals. Photocatalysis as a sustainable process has received considerable attention as it utilizes sunlight irradiation to remedy Cr(VI) via a cost-effective process. Numerous photocatalytic systems have been developed up to now, but metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained growing attention because of their unique versatilities and facile structural modulations. A variety of MOF-based photocatalysts have been widely employed for the photoreduction of Cr(VI). Here, we review the recent progress in the design of MOF photocatalysts and summarize their performance in photoreduction reactions.
