Abstract:The photocatalytic conversion of CO2 using H2O over heterogeneous photocatalysts has attracted worldwide attention because it enables direct solar‐to‐chemical energy conversion. However, further development of this technology requires solutions to overcome the low formation rates of CO2 reduction products and their insufficient selectivity, mainly caused by the rapid charge recombination of photogenerated electron/hole pairs, competition for thermodynamically preferential H2 evolution from H2O, and the relativ… Show more
