Abstract

Photocatalytic organic decomposition is an effective method to combat environmental pollution, a growing public health concern worldwide. Here we report that Fe(iii) nanocluster grafted BiVO4 shows high activity for complete decomposition of organic molecules even under green light. This study is the first investigation to utilize green light for complete gas phase organic decomposition.
