Nanocrystalline ErVO4 as a novel photocatalyst for degradation of organic compounds and solar fuels production

In this work, a novel ErVO 4 photocatalyst was synthesized by means of a facile hydrothermal process at 180 °C. The successful formation of the semiconductor was confirmed by several techniques such as X-ray diffraction, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance, scanning electron microscopy and N 2 physisorption...
