Titanium oxide (TiO,) photocatalysts have been widely studied for both solar energy conversion and environmental applications in the past several decades because of their high chemical stability, good photoactivity, relatively low cost, and nontoxicity. However, the photocatalytic capability of TiO, is limited to only ultraviolet light (wavelength, A,<400 nm), seriously limiting its solar efficiency. ...
