Nitrogen and samarium co-doped BiVO4 (N-xSm-BiVO4) nanoparticles were synthesized using a sol -gel method with a corn stem template. The physicochemical properties of the resultant N-xSm-BiVO4 particles were characterized using various methods: XPS, XRD, SEM, BET, and UV-Vis DRS analyses. The visible-light photocatalytic activity was successfully demonstrated by degrading a model dye, namely, methyl orange. The dopant content was optimized, and the nitrogen and samarium co-doped BiVO4 extended the light absorption spectrum toward the visible region, significantly enhancing the photo-degradation of the model dye. The Sm and N co-doped BiVO4 exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity compared to materials with a single dopant or no dopant. The significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity of the NeSm co-doped BiVO4 under visible-light irradiation can be attributed to the synergistic effects of the nitrogen and samarium.
