Advancements in AgBiO3-based heterojunctions for environmental sustainability: Modification strategies and mechanistic insights
The research fraternity has focused on semiconductor-based photocatalysis to support environmentally sustainable living for upcoming generations. Silver bismuthate (AgBiO3), a potential n-type bismuth-based photocatalyst with ilmenite (perovskite structure) offers remarkable ability for sustainable application. Owing to non-toxic and earth-abundant elements (Ag, Bi, O), the AgBiO3 photocatalyst is considered to be an eco-friendly alternative to traditional photocatalysts. The presence of mixed valence states Bi3+ with a filled 6 s orbital and Bi5+ with an empty 6 s orbital in AgBiO3 photocatalyst narrows the band gap and facilitates a broader light absorption range. However, bare AgBiO3 exhibits some disadvantages like fast e–/h+ pair recombination and is prone to photo-corrosion, which limits its photocatalytic performance and restricts its practical utility. To overcome these limitations, heterojunction formation (Type-II, Z-scheme, and S-scheme) and defect generation play an indispensable role in boosting the photo-efficiency of the bare AgBiO3 via enhanced light absorption, higher quantum efficiency, improved charge transference, and reduced charge recombination as validated by EIS and PL spectroscopy. Therefore, our review focuses on the latest advancements in AgBiO3-based heterojunctions in the field of photocatalysis. It begins with an overview of electronic, optical, and crystallographic properties with a brief discussion of characterization techniques. The review then delves into the modification strategies including type-II, Z-scheme, and S-scheme heterojunction with mechanistic insight. Moreover, the role of AgBiO3-based heterojunctions for various noxious pollutant degradation was explored, thereby contributing to sustainable development goals SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation). Lastly, this article outlines some future research directions and concludes with a summary of key findings.
