Problems solved by technology

However, there is still a large gap in the theoretical photoelectric ionization value of bismuth vanadate, which is mainly attributed to the poor charge transport and carrier separation ability. 5
The bulk doping of impurity elements can effectively increase the majority carrier concentration of bismuth vanadate, thereby improving the charge transport ability, but this method will inevitably introduce new recombination centers 6
A similar effect can also be obtained by introducing oxygen vacancies into the bulk phase, but the content of oxygen vacancies in the bulk phase is not easy to control
