Abstract

Ultrathin “fish scale-like” bismuth oxybromide (BiOBr) nanosheets were grown on the surfaces of bismuth molybdate (Bi₆Mo₂O₁₅) sub-microwires to obtain a BiOBr/Bi₆Mo₂O₁₅ edge-on heterojunction. The vertical growth of BiOBr nanosheets expedited electron transport and offered large interfacial contact areas. Benefiting from these structural and compositional virtues, the optimized BiOBr/Bi₆Mo₂O₁₅ heterojunction exhibited outstanding performance for tetracycline removal.
