Abstract
Bi5O7I belongs to the family of bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX, X = Cl, Br, I), having a unique layered structure with an internal electrostatic field that promotes the separation and transfer of photo-generated charge carriers. Interestingly, Bi5O7I exhibits higher thermal stability compared to its other BiOX member compounds and absorption spectrum extended to the visible region. Bi5O7I has demonstrated applications in diverse fields such as photocatalytic degradation of various organic pollutants, marine antifouling, etc. Unfortunately, owing to its wide band gap of ∼2.9 eV, its absorption lies mainly in the ultraviolet region, and a tiny portion of absorption lies in the visible region. Due to limited absorption, the photocatalytic performance of pure Bi5O7I is still facing challenges. In order to reduce the band gap and increase the light absorption capability of Bi5O7I, doping and formation of heterostructure strategies have been employed, which showed promising results in the photocatalytic performance. In addition, the plasmonic heterostructures of Bi5O7I were also developed to further boost the efficiency of Bi5O7I as a photocatalyst. Here, in this review article, we present such recent efforts made for the advanced development of Bi5O7I regarding its synthesis, properties and applications. The strategies for photocatalytic performance enhancement have been discussed in detail. Moreover, in the conclusion section, we have presented the current challenges and discussed possible prospective developments in this field.

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2021; 13:39985-40001.

Abstract
Ultrahigh charge separation was observed in Bi4O5I2/Bi5O7I two-dimensional (2D)/one-dimensional (1D) hierarchical structures (HSs) constructed by selective growth of 2D monocrystalline Bi4O5I2 nanoplates on the electron-accumulating (100) facet of 1D monocrystalline Bi5O7I nanobelts. In addition to the presence of type-II heterojunction between Bi4O5I2 and Bi5O7I elementary entities in 2D/1D HSs, the type-II (100)/(001) surface heterojunction in Bi5O7I nanobelt substrates was also confirmed by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and selective photoreduction/oxidation deposition experiments. The synergistic effect of two kinds of heterojunctions in Bi4O5I2/Bi5O7I 2D/1D HSs endowed them with ultrahigh charge carrier separation and transfer characteristics. In contrast with the control sample (BB40-C) constructed by growing Bi4O5I2 nanoplates on whole four sides of Bi5O7I nanobelts, Bi4O5I2/Bi5O7I 2D/1D HSs demonstrated significantly enhanced charge transfer between Bi5O7I nanobelt substrates and Bi4O5I2 nanoplates, owing to respective electron and hole accumulations on (100) and (001) facets of Bi5O7I substrates caused by (100)/(001) surface heterojunction. The enhanced separation behavior was successfully verified by steady/transient-state photoluminescence, electrochemical techniques, and photocatalytic degradation experiments. Based on the above effective charge separation of Bi4O5I2/Bi5O7I 2D/1D HSs as well as the routine advantages for 2D/1D HSs, such as the excellent charge transport in monocrystalline elementary entities, much higher specific surface area, and enhanced light absorption by multiple reflections, the optimal BB40 HSs demonstrated ultrahigh photocatalytic performance than the control samples, whose apparent rates for Rhodamine B [or tetracycline hydrochloride (TC)] degradation were 7.1 (2.9 for TC), 10.3 (4.7 for TC), and 2.2 (1.7 for TC) times those of pristine Bi5O7I nanobelts, Bi4O5I2 nanoplates, and BB40-C, respectively. It is hoped that this crystal facet selection during the heterostructure construction in this work could provide a new strategy or some enlightenment for the exploration of highly active 2D/1D HSs or other-dimensional heterostructure nanomaterials applied in the fields of photocatalysts, solar cells, sensors, and others.

Abstract
The novel SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposites were successfully fabricated by a thermal decomposition approach. The as-prepared samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM, EDS, FTIR, DRS and PL spectra. The results show that the SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposites are composed of perovskite SrTiO3 nanoparticles and tetragonal Bi5O7I nanorods. The SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposites exhibit an excellent photocatalytic performance for the degradation of RhB solution under simulated solar light irradiation, which is superior to that of pristine Bi5O7I and SrTiO3. In particular, the 30 wt% SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposite is found as the optimal composites, over which the dye degradation reaches 89.6% for 150 min of photocatalysis. The photocatalytic degradation rate of the 30 wt% SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposite is found to be 3.97 times and 12.5 times higher than that of bare Bi5O7I and SrTiO3, respectively. The reactive species trapping experiments suggest that [Formula: see text] and holes are the main active species responsible for the RhB degradation. In addition, the PL spectra elucidate the effective separation of photoinduced electron-hole pairs. Further, the possible photocatalytic mechanism of the SrTiO3/Bi5O7I nanocomposites is also elucidated based on the experimental evidences.

[PMID: 36659010 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2017.12.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2017] [Revised: 12/10/2017] [Accepted: 12/11/2017] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Band structure and component content are the key factors for determining the activity of semiconductor heterojunction. In this study, a novel Bi5O7I/BiOBrxI1-x heterostructure was synthesized by a simple hydrobromic (HBr) acid etching method through transforming partial of Bi5O7I to I- ion doped BiOBr (BiOBrxI1-x) at room temperature without adding extra dopant. Both the band structure and component content of Bi5O7I/BiOBrxI1-x alter with the additive HBr acid. The Bi5O7I/BiOBrxI1-x (S3.0) sample exhibits the best photocatalytic activity, 6 times higher than that of pure Bi5O7I, for the degradation of methyl orange under visible-light (λ > 420 nm). The activity enhancement of Bi5O7I/BiOBrxI1-x is primarily ascribed to the improved separation efficiency of photocharges, originated from the adjustable band structure and component content. The significant findings of this paper provide a facile way to construct highly efficient semiconductor heterojunction via playing the synergetic effect of adjustable band structure and component content for purifying organic pollutants in wastewater.

Abstract
Ag2O nanoparticles-loaded Bi5O7I microspheres forming a three dimensional Ag2O/Bi5O7I p-n heterojunction photocatalyst with wide-spectrum response were synthesized in this study. The results of transmission electron microscopy observations revealed that the Ag2O nanoparticles with the diameter of ca. 10-20nm were distributed on the surfaces of Bi5O7I nanosheets. The as-synthesized Ag2O/Bi5O7I exhibited an excellent wide-spectrum response to wavelengths ranging from ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (NIR), indicating its potential for effective utilization of solar energy. Compared with pure Bi5O7I, the Ag2O/Bi5O7I composite also demonstrated excellent photocatalytic activity for the degradation of Bisphenol A and phenol in aqueous solution under visible LED light irradiation. Among samples, the 20% Ag2O/Bi5O7I composite photocatalyst showed the highest photocatalytic activity for the degradation of Bisphenol A and phenol in aqueous solution. In addition, the 20% Ag2O/Bi5O7I composite also exhibited a photocatalytic activity for the degradation of Bisphenol A under NIR light irradiation. The improved photocatalytic activity is attributed to the formation of a p-n heterojunction between Ag2O and Bi5O7I, allowing the efficient utilization of solar energy (from UV to NIR) and high separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. The present work is desirable to explore a possible avenue for the full utilization of solar energy.

Abstract
Bismuth-rich bismuth oxyhalides (Bi-O-X; X = Cl, Br, I) display high photocatalytic reduction activity due to the promoting conduction band potential. In this work, two Bi5O7I nanosheets with different dominant facets were synthesized using either molecular precursor hydrolysis or calcination. Crystal structure characterizations, included X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), field emission electron microscopy and fast Fourier transformation (FFT) images, showed that hydrolysis and calcination resulted in the dominant exposure of {100} and {001} facets, respectively. Photocatalytic data revealed that Bi5O7I-001 had a higher activity than Bi5O7I-100 for N2 fixation and dye degradation. Photoelectrochemical data revealed that Bi5O7I-001 had higher photoinduced carrier separation efficiency than Bi5O7I-100. The band structure analysis also used to explain the underlying photocatalytic mechanism based on the different conduction band position. This work presents the first report about the facet-dependent photocatalytic performance of bismuth-rich Bi-O-X photocatalysts.

Abstract
Although semiconductor photocatalysis has been reported for more than 40 years, the spectral response is still focused on the region of UV-Visible and it is seldom extended to more than 600 nm. In this work, visible/near-IR-light-driven 2,9,16,23-tetranitrophthalocyanine iron (FeTNPc)/bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) organic-inorganic heterostructures have been synthesized by a two-step solvothermal method. The obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra, scanning electron and transmission microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, and electrochemical measurements. The photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of methyl orange and bisphenol A solution can be significantly improved under visible/near-IR-light irradiation. Through detecting the main oxidative species by trapping experiments, the results show holes and ˙O2(-) radicals are majorly and minorly responsible for photodegradation respectively. What's more, the FeTNPc/BiOCl composite photocatalyst still retained the photocatalytic activity after three cycle measurements.
