Superior photocatalytic activity of Cu doped NiWO4 for efficient degradation of benzene in air even under visible radiation by Tri N.L.M.

“…This was because Cu effectively acted as novel dopant, which not only affected valence band (VB) top and conduction band (CB) bottom of NiWO4 but also formed a medium energy level between CB and VB of the NiWO4 to decrease its energy band gap and electron-hole recombination rate. …”
