This thesis describes novel strategies for the rational design of
several cutting-edge high-efficiency photocatalysts, for
applications such as water photooxidation, reduction, and overall
splitting using a Z-Scheme system. As such, it focuses on efficient
strategies for reducing energy loss by controlling charge transfer
and separation, including novel faceted forms of silver phosphate
for water photooxidation at record high rates, surface-basic highly
polymerised graphitic carbon nitride for extremely efficient
hydrogen production, and the first example of overall water
splitting using a graphitic carbon nitride-based Z-Scheme system.
Photocatalytic water splitting using solar irradiation can
potentially offer a zero-carbon renewable energy source, yielding
hydrogen and oxygen as clean products. These two 'solar' products
can be used directly in fuel cells or combustion to provide clean
electricity or other energy. Alternatively they can be utilised as
separate entities for feedstock-based reactions, and are considered
to be the two cornerstones of hydrogenation and oxidation
reactions, including the production of methanol as a safe/portable
fuel, or conventional catalytic reactions such as Fischer-Tropsch
synthesis and ethylene oxide production. The main driving force
behind the investigation is the fact that no photocatalyst system
has yet reported combined high efficiency, high stability, and cost
effectiveness; though cheap and stable, most suffer from low
efficiency.
