TLDR
In this paper, a polyol-based synthesis of mixed oxide nanoparticles for hydrogen generation from water using methanol as sacrificial reagent was studied under sunlight type radiation and the results indicate that mixed oxides have better activity compared to pure TiO 2 synthesized by the same method and the activity decreases with increasing SnO 2 concentration in TiO2.About:

Self-Doped Ti3+ Enhanced Photocatalyst for Hydrogen Production under Visible Light
TL;DR: The UV-vis spectra show that the Ti(3+) here extends the photoresponse of TiO(2) from the UV to the visible light region, which leads to high visible-light photocatalytic activity for the generation of hydrogen gas from water.

Meeting the Clean Energy Demand: Nanostructure Architectures for Solar Energy Conversion
TL;DR: In this article, three major ways to utilize nanostructures for the design of solar energy conversion devices are discussed: (i) mimicking photosynthesis with donor−acceptor molecular assemblies or clusters, (ii) semiconductor assisted photocatalysis to produce fuels such as hydrogen, and (iii) nanostructure semiconductor based solar cells.

Nitrogen-Concentration Dependence on Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2-xNx Powders
TL;DR: In this paper, the same absorbed photon number, 1.4 × 1014 quanta·cm-2·s-1, of visible (Vis) or ultraviolet (UV) light was evaluated by the decomposition of gaseous 2-propanol (IPA) powders with low nitrogen concentrations (< 0.02) and showed that the isolated narrow band formed above the valence band is responsible for the Vis light response in the present nitrogen doped TiO2.
