Abstract

This chapter presents the tetragonal matlockite structure of bismuth oxyhalides and the results of X-ray diffraction, Raman spectra, and FTIR spectra of the material. The surface chemical analysis using XPS results, surface morphology using high-resolution TEM images of bismuth oxyhalides are also presented.
