Rod-like a-Bi2O3 and tetrahedral g-Bi2O3 particles have been controlled fabricated by a facile solution crystallization method, which was performed at a mild reaction condition without any surfactants and/or templates. By combining the results of X-ray powder diffraction, high resolution transmission electron.microscope, scanning electron microscopy, Xeray photoelectron spectra, and UV-visible absorption spectra, the morphology and crystalline phase evolution of Bi2O3 was studied versus reaction time and reaction temperature. It is interesting to note that the phenomenon of a-Bi2O3 / g-Bi2O3 / a-Bi2O3 transformation was found. The nanorod a-Bi2O3 phase formed in a short time, while a-Bi2O3 could transform to tetrahedral g-Bi2O3 crystals upon enough reaction time. However, g-Bi2O3 may transform into rod-shape a-Bi2O3 with further increasing the reaction time. Moreover, it can be deduced that high.reaction temperature promoted the transformation from a-Bi2O3 to g-Bi2O3, and then from g-Bi2O3 to a-Bi2O3. The photocatalytic activities of Bi2O3 with different crystalline phases were evaluated by the photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B as a model pollutant. The g-Bi2O3, which exhibits lower.electrons-holes recombination rate than that of a-Bi2O3, showed excellent photocatalytic activity as compared with the a-Bi2O3.
