Cover Story: In this study, graphene-modified plate-like BiVO4 composites combined with silver nanoplates (AgNPts) were successfully prepared and used as a photocatalyst for CO2 photoconversion. Among them, triangular silver nanoplates on graphene–BiVO4 exhibited the highest photoreduction efficiency of CO2 to CH4, 18.1 μmolg−1h−1, which is 5.03 times higher than pure BiVO4 under the irradiation of a Hg lamp. This high efficiency demonstrates the need to consider the compositions of photocatalysts for converting CO2 to solar fuels. View this paper
