Abstract
Abstract
Bismuth chloride oxide (BiOCl) is a typical V-VI-VII ternary oxide material, which is one of the widely studied metal oxides due to its unique surface, electronic and photocatalytic properties. However, the broad bandgap and the large number of photogenerated electron-hole pair complexes of BiOCl limit its photocatalytic efficiency. Since the photocatalytic performance of BiOCl is highly dependent on its exposed crystallographic facets, research attention has increasingly focused on the different structures and properties possessed by different crystallographic facets of BiOCl. This article reviews the basic principles of using different crystalline surfaces of BiOCl materials to enhance photocatalytic activity, summarizes the applications of BiOCl single-crystal catalysts and composite catalysts in the environmental field, and provides an outlook on the challenges and new research directions for future development in this emerging frontier area. It is hoped that the crystalline surface-related photocatalysis of BiOCl can be used to provide new guidance for the rational design of novel catalysts for various energy and environment-related applications.
