Abstract

Bi₂O₂[BO₂(OH)] nanosheets having an internal polar electric field in the crystal structure were synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal method. Due to the existence of the internal polar electric field, the separation of photoinduced carriers can be enhanced, resulting in the high photocatalytic activity of Bi₂O₂[BO₂(OH)] nanosheets under irradiation of UV light.
