| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project is aimed at the development of a photocatalytic water splitting system for one of the artificial photosynthesis systems, to convert solar energy into chemical energy with unprecedented high efficiency. New overall water splitting system has been achieved, which utilize light up to 600 nm. Moreover, by using particulate photocatalyst sheets, a solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion efficiency of 1.1% and an apparent quantum yield of 33% have been realized.
