Abstract

Correction for ‘Carbon quantum dots as a visible light sensitizer to significantly increase the solar water splitting performance of bismuth vanadate photoanodes’ by Kai-Hang Ye et al., Energy Environ. Sci., 2017, DOI: 10.1039/c6ee03442j.


The last sentence of the paragraph on the left-hand column of page 3, beginning “Diffuse reflectance UV-visible spectra…” should read:

“The band-gap energy (Eg value) of BiVO4 can thus be estimated from a plot of (αhν)1/2versus photon energy ().”

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
