Facile synthesis of AgBr nanocubes for highly efficient visible light photocatalysts

Abstract

AgBr nanocubes, with an average edge length of 500 nm, were synthesized by a facile precipitation reaction. A plausible growth mechanism was proposed. The as-prepared AgBr nanocubes were used as photocatalysts for the first time, exhibiting excellent photocatalytic activity under visible light illumination.
