Bi2WO6 microelectrode arrays on FTO glass substrates were fabricated by a picoliter solution dispensing technique using Bi(NO3)(3) as the Bi source and (NH4)(6)H2W12O40 as the W source in ethylene glycol. The scanning electrochemical microscope modified by using an optical fiber in place of an ultramicroelectrode was employed for rapid screening of the Bi2WO6 arrays and to investigate the effect of 12 different dopants on the photocatalytic oxidation of SO32-. Among the different dopant compositions, addition of 12% Zn showed a photocurrent enhancement of up to 80% compared with that of the pure Bi2WO6. This result was further confirmed with bulk electrode studies for SO32- and water oxidation. UV-vis absorption, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction studies were carried out with the photocatalysts to elucidate the role of Zn in the bulk semiconductors. Absorbed photon-to-current efficiency and incident photon-to-current efficiency determinations further confirm the enhancement of photoelectrochemical behavior upon addition of Zn to Bi2WO6 photocatalysts.
