The project seeks to provide new insights into the effects that structure and composition of catalyst materials have on photocatalytic properties, to tackle the bottlenecks inhibiting the commercialisation of water-splitting technology. The main objective of this project is to strategically design and synthesise highly efficient photo-harvesting mesostructural materials (multi-shelled hollow microspheres) and use them for efficient photocatalytic water splitting. Based on an understanding of photoharvesting materials and the current challenges that plague water-splitting reactions, the project plans to use state-of-the-art materials synthesis and theoretical calculations to develop next-generation photo-harvesting materials for water-splitting systems.

该项目旨在为催化剂材料的结构和组成对光催化性能的影响提供新的见解，以解决阻碍水分解技术商业化的瓶颈。该项目的主要目标是从战略上设计和合成高效的光捕获介观结构材料(多壳空心微球)，并将其用于高效光催化分解水。基于对光捕获材料和当前困扰分水反应的挑战的了解，该项目计划使用最先进的材料合成和理论计算来开发用于分水系统的下一代光捕获材料。
