Abstract
New polar BiOIO3 nanostructures were successfully synthesized by 90 and 180 W microwave for 20-100 min. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-visible spectroscopy revealed the presence of pure orthorhombic BiOIO3 nanoplates with 2.5-2.9 eV energy gap. The photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) by BiOIO3 photocatalyst was tested under visible radiation for 60 min. In this research, BiOIO3 photocatalyst synthesized by 180 W microwave for 60 min has the highest activity of 96%.
