One‐dimensional TiO2 Nanotube Photocatalysts for Solar Water Splitting
Hydrogen production from water splitting by photo/photoelectron-catalytic process is a promising route to solve both fossil fuel depletion and environmental pollution at the same time. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes have attracted much interest due to their large specific surface area and highly ordered structure, which has led to promising potential applications in photocatalytic degradatio...
متن کاملFabricating Highly Active Mixed Phase TiO2 Photocatalysts by Low Angle Reactive DC Magnetron Sputter Deposition
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most widely studied photocatalysts during the past decades due to its ability to photo-oxidize harmful chemicals in both air and water to CO2 in the presence of UV light. TiO2 also shows promise for energy applications such as water splitting [1], as well as in photochemical solar cells [2]. TiO2 use has also been extended to large scale commercial producti...
متن کاملRecent progress in oxynitride photocatalysts for visible-light-driven water splitting
Photocatalytic water splitting into hydrogen and oxygen is a method to directly convert light energy into storable chemical energy, and has received considerable attention for use in large-scale solar energy utilization. Particulate semiconductors are generally used as photocatalysts, and semiconductor properties such as bandgap, band positions, and photocarrier mobility can heavily impact phot...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic overall water splitting by conjugated semiconductors with crystalline poly(triazine imide) frameworks.
Photocatalytic water splitting is an ideal pathway to produce hydrogen for the future energy supply due to the sustainability of solar energy and the mild reaction conditions. In the past four decades, many inorganic semiconductor photocatalysts have been studied for this purpose. In recent years, conjugated polymers, in particular covalent carbon nitride frameworks, have rapidly emerged as a n...
متن کاملPhoto corrosion of titania nanotubes within water splitting reaction
Titania nanotubes (TNT) prepared by anodization of Ti foils were used for water splitting in a standalone cell. The concentration polarization between the anode side (1M NaOH) and cathode side (0.5 M H2SO4) ensured that the water splitting reaction could take place with no external bias and separate H2 and O2 evolution could be achieved. The destructi...
