Abstract:Artificial photocatalytic energy conversion is a very interesting strategy to solve energy crises and environmental problems by directly collecting solar energy, but low photocatalytic conversion efficiency is a bottleneck that restricts the practical application of photocatalytic reactions. The key issue is that the photo-generated charge separation process spans a huge spatio-temporal scale from femtoseconds to seconds, and involves complex physical processes from microscopic atoms to macroscopic materials. … Show more
