Abstract
LnVO4(Ln=La,Ce,Pr,Nd,etc.)is an emerging photocatalyst for solving the energy and environmental crisis,due to its suitable band gap,special valence electronic structure,high thermal,and chemical sta-bility,as well as excellent photocatalytic performance.Although exhibiting great promise,the low solar power employment efficiency of LnVO4 materials has limited its further development and application.However,recent breakthroughs have been made in both heightening its photocatalysis efficiency and elu-cidating the essential photocatalytic mechanisms.Therefore,it is important to review and summarize recent research progress on LnVO4 nanomaterials and their applications.In this review,we systemat-ically report on and examine recent computational and experimental advances in the modification of LnVO4-based photocatalysts through morphology adjustment,elemental doping,phase structure modula-tion,crystal facet modulation,defect modulation,heterostructure,and beyond.Thereafter,we outline cur-rent promising photocatalytic applications and discuss challenges/expected upcoming research aims for LnVO4-based photocatalysts.Our goal is to furnish guidance for the reasonable design and preparation of highly efficient LnVO4(Ln=La,Ce,Pr,Nd,etc.)-based photocatalytic materials for sundry applications.
