| Abstract | Bi7O9I3, a fresh member of the bismuth oxyhalide family, with hierarchical micro/nano-architecture is successfully synthesized by a one-step, template and surfactant-free solution method. The as-prepared product was characterized by various techniques. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis confirm that the composition of the as-fabricated sample is Bi7O9I3. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy observations reveal that the as-synthesized sample exhibits a microsized plate-like structure with dense nanosheets standing on their surfaces. The time-dependent morphology of the Bi7O9I3 sample was investigated, and a possible formation mechanism of the hierarchical structure is proposed. More importantly, the Bi7O9I3 exhibits an excellent photocatalytic activity in the degradation of phenol under visible light irradiation. The high catalytic performance of the Bi7O9I3 hierarchical structure comes from its electronic band structure, high surface area and high surface-to-volume ratio. In addition, the Bi7O9I3 hierarchical architecture is stable during the reaction and can be used repeatedly. The present work not only gives insight into understanding the hierarchical growth behaviour of complex bismuth oxide iodide structures in a solution-phase synthetic system, but also provides a new way to improve the photocatalytic performance by designing desirable structures and morphologies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
