Engineering Electronic Structure and Band Alignment of 2D Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> via Anion Doping for Photocatalytic Applications

The wide bandgap of 2D Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> inhibits its applications in visible-light photocatalytic applications. Besides, its mismatched band alignment to the redox potential of O<sub>2</sub>/H<sub>2</sub>O, brings about low efficacy of water-splitting performanc...
