In this paper, the sensitization photodegradation of single and mixed dyes by wide band gap boron nitride (BN, 3.94 eV) under visible light irradiation has been investigated for the first time.
A wide band-gap photocatalyst SrNb2O6 was adjusted to response to visible light in H2 and O2 evolution due to the new electron state in its band gap created by the Sn(ii) dopant.
