BiVO4 supported Ag–AgBr heterostructures were fabricated by a designed three-step method and then used as an efficient visible light driven plasmonic photocatalyst to degrade organic dye.
A new visible-light-driven plasmonic photocatalyst Ag@AgCl/AgNbO3 is prepared via loading with Ag@AgCl nanoparticles by an impregnating precipitation photoreduction method.
