TiO2 and other titanium oxide-based nanomaterials have drawn immense attention from
researchers in different scientific domains due to their fascinating multifunctional properties …

The remarkable achievement by Fujishima and Honda (1972) in the photo-electrochemical
water splitting results in the extensive use of TiO 2 nanomaterials for environmental …

Light harvesting, separation of charge carriers, and surface reactions are three fundamental
steps that are essential for an efficient photocatalyst. Here we show that these steps in the …

Atomically dispersed noble metal catalysts often exhibit high catalytic performances, but the
metal loading density must be kept low (usually below 0.5%) to avoid the formation of metal …

The higher the chemical diversity and structural complexity of two-dimensional (2D)
materials, the higher the likelihood they possess unique and useful properties. Herein …

The atomistic structures of solid–solid interfaces are of fundamental interests for
understanding physical properties of interfacial materials. However, determination of …

TiO2 anatase plays a central role in energy and environmental research. A major bottleneck
toward developing artificial photosynthesis with TiO2 is that it only absorbs ultraviolet light …

An extensive and wide-ranging literature about the polymorphs of titanium dioxide (TiO 2)
has accumulated during the last few decades, providing a very large resource of data on its …

Surface contamination by microbes is a major public health concern. A damp environment is
one of potential sources for microbe proliferation. Smart photocatalytic coatings on building …

The field of surface science provides a unique approach to understanding bulk, surface and
interfacial phenomena occurring during TiO 2 photocatalysis. This review highlights, from a …
