BiFeO3 nanoparticle decorated on flower-like ZnO (BiFeO3/ZnO) was fabricated through a facile hydrothermal-reflux combined method. This material was utilized as a composite photocathode for the first time in microbial fuel cell (MFC) to reduce the copper ion (Cu2+) and power generation concomitantly...
