Zusammenfassung: | |
High photon conversion efficiencies and low-cost materials are crucial for implementing photocatalytic solutions in large scale applications. To improve the conversion efficiencies, knowledge on the lifetime and dynamics of photogenerated charge carriers is fundamental, for which transient absorption spectroscopy has provided important insights. Regarding the cost of the materials, one approach to decrease it is mixing the photocatalyst with cheaper additives while avoiding a significant loss in its activity. In this short review we summarize the findings of our group dealing with both aspects. A new model to fit transient absorption decays, based on fractal kinetics, is discussed. The model has been applied to the transient decays of TiO2 mixtures with binary particle size distributions and of TiO2 mixtures with a priori inert additives. In both cases, the insights obtained from the model were crucial to explain the photocatalytic activities of the mixtures. © 2020, The Author(s). | |
