We have successfully investigated the one-electron oxidation and reduction processes of several compounds during POM-mediated TiO_2 photocatalytic reactions using a two-color two-laser flash-photolysis technique. It should he noted that both processes were examined using the same system. For the one-electron oxidation prosses, the efficiency of the one-electron oxidation is significantly enhanced due to electron transfer from the CB of TiO_2 to POM. For the one-electron reduction processes, we observed electron injection from PW_12O_40^4*. to the CB of TiO_2, and achieved storage of the electrons in the TiO_2/PW_12O_40^3-/MV^2+ ternary system using a two-color two-laser irradiation. The present results will lead to further application of TiO_2/POM photocatalysts and demonstrate that the two-color two-laser flash-photolysis technique is a powerflul tool for the investigation of interfacial electron transfer at the heterogeneous surfaces of nanocomposite materials.
