摘要: Herein, we demonstrate a template-free and eco-friendly strategy to synthesize hierarchical Ag3PO4 microcrystals with sharp corners edges via silver–ammine complex at room temperature. The as-synthesized were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–vis DRS), BET surface area analyzer, photoluminescence analysis (PL). Our results clearly indicated that the possess structure edges. More attractively, adsorption ability visible light photocatalytic activity of is much higher than conventional Ag3PO4.
