The appropriate energy level position of photocatalysts dominates the photocatalytic redox reaction and utilization efficiency of solar energy for wastewater treatment. Herein, we report a near-infrared (NIR) light driven Bi5+-rich Bi4O7 photocatalyst, achieving a greatly enhanced photocatalytic act...
