affect the SPR of Au NPs. The Au NPs promote the rapid separation of charge carriers of semiconductor [10][26][27]. Thus, we attempt to use 0D Au NPs to decorate 1D CuBi2O4 (CBO) microrods to obtain a new type of efficient 0D/1Dcomposite photocatalyst.
Herein, 0D/1D Au NP/CBO microrod composites were
