Enhancing the photocatalytic hydrogen production activity of BiVO4 [110] facets using oxygen vacancies

The activity of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) during photoelectrochemical (PEC) water-splitting is limited when using BiVO4 with an exposed [110] facet because the conduction band minimum is below the H+/H2O potential. Here, we enhance the photocatalytic hydrogen production activity through...
