. The results indicated that TaON semiconductor present special structure with amounts of pores like honeycomb
and its specific surface area was 6 times higher than that of traditional TaON. For the photocatalytic performance
multihole TaON showed a certain ability of photocatalytic selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol. Such property could be improved with the coaction of Pd and Ag.
