Defect engineering in photocatalytic materials
Abstract
Abstract Defect engineering in photocatalytic materials has been proven as a versatile approach to maneuver their performance in solar-to-chemical energy conversion. In this article, the state-of-the-art progress on the defect-engineered photocatalytic materials is reviewed. We first give the critical classifications for defects in photocatalysts. Then various strategies for fabricating defects in photocatalytic materials are summarized together with their characterization techniques. As a focus, the promotion of three basic steps in photocatalysis, including light absorption, charge transfer and separation, and surface catalytic reaction by defect engineering is discussed in detail. Moreover, some other important functions of defects in photocatalysis are introduced in the article, followed by the discussion on some recent advancements of defective photocatalytic materials in energy-related applications. Finally, the future opportunities and challenges regarding defect engineering in photocatalysis are presented to highlight the development directions of this research field.

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.
