Copper Oxide-Doped Bismuth Oxychloride Heterostructures for Heterogeneous Photocatalysis: Design, Kinetics, and Photocatalytic Degradation Mechanism for Water Decontamination

Bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl)- copper oxide (CuO) heterostructures were synthesized via a solvothermal route and assessed as visible-light-driven photocatalysts for methyl orange (MO) degradation. Different CuO loadings deposited on BiOCl microspheres were
