Research for the development of more efficient photocatalysts
has experienced an almost exponential growth since its
popularization in early 1970 s. Despite the advantages of the
widely used TiO2, the yield of the conversion of sun power into
chemical energy that can be achieved with this material is limited"
"prompting the research and development of a number of structural,
morphological and chemical modifications of TiO2, as well as a
number of novel photocatalysts with very different composition."
Design of Advanced Photocatalytic Materials for Energy and
Environmental Applications" provides a systematic account of the
current understanding of the relationships between the
physicochemical properties of the catalysts and photoactivity.
The already long list of photocatalysts phases and their
modifications is increasing day by day. By approaching this field
from a material sciences angle, an integrated view allows readers
to consider the diversity of photocatalysts globally and in
connection with other technologies. "Design of Advanced
Photocatalytic Materials for Energy and Environmental Applications"
provides a valuable road-map, outlining the common principles lying
behind the diversity of materials, but also delimiting the
imprecise border between the contrasted results and the most
speculative studies. This broad approach makes it ideal for
specialist but also for engineers, researchers and students in
related fields.
