Hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), is considered hazardous heavy metal in water bodies that can cause severe effects on human health and the environment. Over the years, myriad attention has been focused on developing photocatalysts to remove Cr(VI) from wastewater. However, broad bandgap energy and the h...
