Abstract

This chapter describes different variants of modified bismuth oxyhalides in order to enhance the functionality of the material. Different material modifications, like hybrid system with metal where the metal functions as a co-catalyst and also induces the surface Plasmon effect, and the hybrid system with carbon and other semiconducting materials that form a heterojunction are elaborately discussed.
