More Description
Optical Properties of Semiconducting Nanostructures for Photocatalytic Applications: Fundamental Understanding and Material Design introduces different optical phenomena in semiconducting nanostructures that can impact their performance in photocatalytic applications. It discusses how to design photocatalyst materials with the highest efficiency to remove pollutants and improve the water splitting process. Sections review the fundamental mechanisms of the photocatalytic process by semiconducting materials and delve into the impacts of optical properties on the performance of semiconducting materials for photocatalytic applications. Materials such as semiconductor/g-C3N4 nanocomposites, semiconductor/graphene nanocomposites, inorganic/organic nanocomposites, metal/semiconductor nanocomposites and wide bandgap metal-chalcogenide nanostructures are covered.
This book is suitable for those working in the disciplines of materials science, chemistry and physics.
