Application

  • Bismuth(III) acetate is employed as a starting material in the synthesis of bismuth(III) sulfide (Bi2S3) which can be used in solution-processable bulk heterojunction solar cells.
  • It is used in the preparation of gold-bismuth sulfide (Au–Bi2S3) heteronanostructures and bismuth titanate nanorods as photocatalysts.
  • It is also used in the synthesis of triarylbismuth compounds.

Herein, we report a strategy to construct a semi-hollow plasmonic nanocavity and grow ultrathin sulfide nanosheets inside. The competition and cooperation of Au deposition with Ag etching based on flat Ag nanoplates are proposed. For the establishment of the semi-hollow
