Abstract

A novel heterojunction photocatalyst p-LaFeO₃/n-Ag₃PO₄ has been prepared via a facile in situ precipitation method. It exhibits higher activity than individual Ag₃PO₄ and LaFeO₃ in the degradation of phenol. The excellent activity is mainly attributed to its more effective separation of electron–hole pairs.
