Abstract

Uniform well crystallized flower-like three-dimensional (3D) BiOClBr and I-doped BiOClBr microspheres with diameter of 1 μm were synthesized through a simple EG-assisted solvothermal method. The existence of I atoms in the BiOClBr compound could greatly enhance both adsorption and photocatalytic activity as compared with the BiOClBr and BiOX (Cl, Br, I) monomers. The highest catalytic performance of the flower-like 3D I-doped BiOClBr microspheres was preliminary deduced to be due to the much higher specific surface area, efficient sorption capacity as well as the unique interfacial structure. These factors may favor the absorption of light and separation of photogenerated charged carriers more effectively.
