The structural chlorine is obtained by in situ generation of chloride ions. From Raman spectra, we could resolve the E-g transition. Photocatalytic activity of as-synthesized crystals showed 78% degradation of RhB dye under a xenon source after 120 min of exposure.</p>1 aBiswas, Anupam1 aDas, Raja1 aDey, Chandan1 aBanerjee, Rahul1 aPoddar, Panka  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/ligand-free-one-step-synthesis-001-faceted-semiconducting-biocl-single-crystals-and-their-0
