Materials like titanium oxide, known as
semiconductors with the wide band - gap, are traditionally used to convert sunlight to chemical energy for the
photocatalytic reaction.
In the past several years, many
semiconductor photocatalysts have been developed for
photocatalytic CO2 reduction to hydrocarbons [1,2].
