Ag3VO4 Nanoparticles Decorated Bi2O2CO3 Micro-Flowers: An Efficient Visible-Light-Driven Photocatalyst for the Removal of Toxic Contaminants

Semiconductor-based photocatalysis is of great potential for tackling the environmental pollution. Herein, a novel hierarchical heterostructure of Bi2O2CO3 micro-flowers in-situ decorated with Ag3VO4 nanoparticles was developed by a facile method. Various characterization techniques have been employ...
