Chirality, a characteristic of objects that do not overlap with their mirror images, is widely explored in organic compounds. Still, its application in inorganic nanostructures, such as gold, silver, and copper nanoparticles, has grown due to their remarkable chiro-optical properties and significant impact on processes like asymmetric catalysis and electronic devices. Hybrid systems forme…
The use of nanostructured metal semiconductors in (photo)(electro)catalytic processes has been attracting attention in the last decades. Currently, the researches are focused on the seek for enhancing the catalytic efficiency of these materials. One of the outstanding strategies consists to prepare heterojunctions with other semiconductors (metal and/or organic) or plasmonic nanostructure…
Using solar light in photo-induced processes is very attractive since it is a clean and practically limitless energy source. Recently research related to the development of new photocatalysts capable of use this kind of energy has been growing. Metal oxides semiconductors have excelled in this field, however, the development of materials capable of utilize the visible component of the rad…
The contamination of water by sewage and industrial effluents is a global problem, and conventional treatments are insufficient to remove emerging contaminants. The use of semiconducting metal oxides for the photocatalytic degradation of this type of contaminant is a promising solution. In this regard, BiVO4 is an interesting photocatalyst due to its ability to degrade organic compounds u…
Bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) is considered one of the most promising materials for the development of visible-light sensitive photocatalysts. However, this material exhibits high recombination rates and relatively low stability, which limits its applicability. Tungsten doping and heterojunction formation with tungsten oxide (WO3), are the most promising strategies to increase the photocatalyt…
Bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) is considered one of the most promising materials for developing photoanodes for hydrogen production from water, using sunlight as heating source. However, this material exhibits high recombination rates, which limits its applicability. Tungsten doping and heterojunction formation with tungsten oxide (WO3), are the most attractive strategies to improve the photoel…

The global energy crisis and environmental pollution drive innovative research for sustainable solutions. Photocatalysis, converting light to chemical energy, holds potential. TiO2 anatase is a notable semiconductor photocatalyst, yet limited visible light absorption and electron-hole recombination hinder its efficiency. Novel approaches include chiral nanostructures and plasmonic nanopar…
Photoanodes based on W-BiVO4/WO3 heterojunctions are promising for photoelectrochemical water splitting. However, they have important drawbacks, such as limited charge transfer, photocorrosion and recombination. A strategy to enhance the heterojunction efficiency is enhancing the conductivity and surface area by coupling WO3 with graphene. Several routes have been used to synthesize WO3 o…
