Cleavage of water to its constituents (i.e., hydrogen and oxygen)
for production of hydrogen energy at an industrial scale is one of
the "holy grails" of materials science. That can be done by
utilizing the renewable energy resource i.e. sunlight and
photocatalytic material. The sunlight and water are abundant and
free of cost available at this planet. But the development of a
stable, efficient and cost-effective photocatalytic material to
split water is still a great challenge. To develop the effective
materials for photocatalytic water splitting, various type of
materials with different sizes and structures from nano to giant
have been explored that includes metal oxides, metal chalcogenides,
carbides, nitrides, phosphides, and so on. Fundamental concepts and
state of art materials for the water splitting are also discussed
to understand the phenomenon/mechanism behind the
photoelectrochemical water splitting. This book gives a
comprehensive overview and description of the manufacturing of
photocatalytic materials and devices for water splitting by
controlling the chemical composition, particle size, morphology,
orientation and aspect ratios of the materials. The real
technological breakthroughs in the development of the photoactive
materials with considerable efficiency, are well conversed to bring
out the practical aspects of the technique and its
commercialization.
