TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of high temperature treatment based on the dynamics of photocarriers by transient absorption spectroscopy (TAS), which revealed that upon band gap excitation, most of the photoexcited electrons in non-reduced SrTiO3 are deeply trapped in the intrinsic defects as evident from the strong broad absorption signals peaking at 11.000 cm−1 (909 nm, 1.36 eV) and 20.48 eV), whereas the absorption intensities in this wavenumber region largely decreased in highly reduced SrTi

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that site-selective deposition of nanosized CoOx as a water oxidation cocatalyst at the edge of a thin film of Au nanoparticl...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a solution of GaN and ZnO for splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen under visible light (λ > 400 nm) with good reproducibility.

TL;DR: This chapter describes recent research progress on heterogeneous photocatalysis for water splitting with visible light, particularly focusing on the development of nanostructured cocatalysts made by the authors' group.

TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of water splitting using a semiconductor photocatalyst with sunlight has been studied as a potential means of large-scale H2 production from renewable resources.
