Development of novel BiOBrI nanostructures with remarkably High dark phase bactericidal activities.

Semiconductor materials with promising photocatalytic activities are being developed for numerous applications including their use in the development of antibacterial products. However, the light may not be available everywhere, which restrict the use of semiconductor photocatalytic materials in real applications. In this area, we report a novel nanostructure of BiOBrI to show enormously high bactericidal activities even at dark.
