Surface defects are critically important for photocatalytic reactions. Compared with the widely studied oxygen vacancies, engineering metal vacancies into photocatalysts and study the effect of metal vacancies on the photocatalytic performance is seldom reported. Herein, we engineering bismuth vacan...
