One-step synthesis of AgCl concave cubes by preferential overgrowth along 〈111〉 and 〈110〉 directions

Abstract

A new class of AgCl microstructures, concave cubes, with preferential overgrowth along 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 directions, has been prepared in a monodisperse fashion by a wet chemical oxidization method. With high-index facets exposed, the concave cubic AgCl exhibits higher photocatalytic activity in O2 evolution than cubic ones.
