Article Preview

Abstract:

In recent years, as a novel photocatalyst with the excellent ability to absorb visible light, BiVO₄ has drawn increasing attention. In this paper, the photocatalytic mechanism and the electronic band structure of BiVO₄ were introduced in detail. On the basis of main modifications of BiVO₄, progress in BiVO₄ photocatalyst for degradation was further reviewed. The aim of this work is to provide guideline for the intensive studies of BiVO₄ in future.
