Lattice Defects Engineering in W-, Zr-doped BiVO<sub>4</sub> by Flame Spray Pyrolysis: Enhancing Photocatalytic O<sub>2</sub> Evolution

A flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) method has been developed, for controlled doping of BiVO<sub>4</sub> nanoparticles with W and Zr <i>in tandem</i> with the oxygen vacancies (Vo) of the BiVO<sub>4</sub> lattice. Based on XPS and Raman data, we show that the nanolattic...
