Abstract

Ca/Mn doped BiFeO₃ microcrystals were prepared by a conventional hydrothermal process. The crystalline structure, morphologies and photocatalytic activities were investigated. The results show that Ca/Mn doping in different sites intensely influenced the crystalline structure, morphology, dimension and energy band configuration of BiFeO₃ microcrystals, which finally lead to great changes in its photocatalytic activity. Furthermore, the results reveal that photocatalytic activity of BiFeO₃ system could be optimized by altering its energy band configuration through ion doping, other than variation in particle dimension.
