Surface engineering induced superstructure Ta2O5−x mesocrystals for enhanced visible light photocatalytic antibiotic degradation

[Display omitted] •Surface engineered Ta2O5−x mesocrystals were synthesized.•The sample showed enhanced photocatalytic performance.•Alkali modifications induced increased surface areas and surface hydroxyl groups.•Possible degraded pathways and mechanism were proposed. Mesocrystals are types of fasc...
