| 520 | __ | |aThe potential success of solar-to-fuels conversion relies upon the development of efficient photocatalysts that can harvest greater range of photon energy from the solar radiation to generate charge carriers, their efficient separation and faster transport to the catalytic active sites for hydrogen generation. Additionally, a suitable semiconductor photocatalyst requires a sufficiently negative conduction band edge (Ec) and positive valence band edge (Ev) to provide ample driving force to photo-generated electrons to reduce H+into H2 and photo-generated holes to oxidize water. The fast recombination of photo-generated electrons and holes is one of dominant process in single band gap semiconductors that results in low IPCE and STH efficiency as the recombination process (~10-9s) is much faster than surface redox reactions (10-8-10-1s). Therefore, the single band gap semiconductor alone poses limitation and not competent enough for overall efficient s |
