• . Capacitance values higher than 10 mF·cm−2 were maintained even after 10000 galvanostatic cycles (ic = ia = 0.5 mA·cm−2). Keywords: bismuth vanadate (BiVO4); electrochemical activity; PEDOT:PSS; supercapacitors; titania nanotubes; Introduction Energy-storage technologies and sustainable energy production are

• nanotubes were estimated to be ca. 95 nm and ca. 20 nm, respectively (Figure 2c inset). The SEM micrograph of the Ti/TiO2/BiVO4 electrode material is presented in Figure 2d. PLD allows for a very homogenous deposition of bismuth vanadate. BiVO4 was mainly deposited on the upper edge of the titania nanotubes

• geometry of the scales of a butterfly promote a light trapping effect from the UV to NIR range, which significantly increases the light absorption compared to a non-patterned system [149]. These works inspired the combination of bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) with the 3D architecture design of a butterfly wing

• -doped g-C3N4 (SCN)-BiVO4 nanocomposite for water oxidation reaction. Bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) is one of the most fascinating photocatalysts with a suitable direct band gap (2.4 eV), which is excited by visible light energy and suitably positioned CB and VB edge potentials, which are favorable for

• previous work with direct relevance to this report, we showed that POM chemistry can be inspired by solid-state photocatalysts when the first molecular analogue of bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) photocatalysts was obtained [33][34][35][36]. Bismuth vanadate is one of the best-known solid-state visible light
