Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Many kinds of photocatalysts have been developed by the concept of band potential control based on formation of solid solutions and design of new compounds based on crystal chemistry. In perovskite-type oxynitrides, band potentials are significantly affected by constituent elements occupying A-site even though the O/N ratio and B-site constituents are the same. This clearly demonstrates the importance of advanced band control for construction of high performance photocatalysts. In addition, it was also revealed that activities of band-controlled photocatalysts strongly affected by the synthetic methods and conditions, and improvements of some photocatalysts have been achieved in this research.
