About this ebook
S-scheme Heterojunction Photocatalysts Fundamentals and Applications clearly describes photocatalytic processes and mechanisms, reviews the history of traditional heterojunction, discusses the problems of charge transfer in some heterojunctions, states the necessity in proposing S-scheme photocatalyst, and provides, in detail, the design principles and characterization protocols for the emerging S-scheme heterojunction. Examples of S-scheme heterojunctions classified by material types are summarized, and the book provides a comprehensive discussion on design, fabrication, principle, mechanism, characterization, and application of S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst. This book provides state-of-art research frontiers in this area that will appeal to experienced researchers and graduate students, as well as research and development scientists in the nanosized-composite-related industry. - Provides the latest advances in this topic area, offering insights into the materials and applications of the hybrid materials - Helps distinguish correct explanations from invalid ones and clears up historical misunderstandings in the field - Provides new perspectives in charge carrier migration - Enlightens readers to help them design and develop novel photocatalysts of their own with improved efficiency
