Generating solar fuels from water and carbon dioxide using photocatalysts has great promise for the development of sustainable energy resources. This book provides a comprehensive description of recent developments in the structural design principles of semiconductor materials and heterostructures, including metal oxide, (oxy)nitride, (oxy)sulfide, (oxy)halide, chalcogenide-based semiconductors, quantum dots, carbon-based nanomaterials and 2D nanomaterials, towards efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, oxygen evolution, overall water splitting and carbon dioxide reduction. The book covers a variety of topics: the photocatalytic mechanism, factors affecting photocatalytic activity, role of co-catalysts, the structure–activity relationship, as well as challenges and strategies. The book also provides theoretical studies that identify the influencing parameters for the photocatalytic performance and provides insight into the different aspects and challenges associated with the realization of sustainable solar hydrogen production systems on a large scale.
