Recent Development in Defects Engineered Photocatalysts: An Overview of the Experimental and Theoretical Strategies
Open accessAbstract
Recently, defect architectured photocatalysis is proved to be the most versatile choice for high solar to chemical energy conversion processes. Defect engineering strategies are of great demand to effectively tune the electronic microstructure and surface morphologies of semiconductors to boost charge carrier concentration and extend light harvesting capability. This review provides a comprehensive insight to various kinds of defects along with their synthesis procedures and controlling mechanism to uplift photocatalytic activity. In addition, the contribution made by defects and material optimization techniques toward electronic band structure of the photocatalyst, the optimal concentration of defects, the key adsorption processes, charge distribution, and transfer dynamics have been explained in detail. Further, to clarify the relationship between photocatalytic activity and defect states in real, a comprehensive outlook to the versatile photocatalytic applications has been presented to highlight current challenges and future applications. Defect engineering therefore stands as the next step toward advancement in the design and configuration of modern photocatalysts for high efficiency photocatalysis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
