Modern Methods in Heterogeneous Catalysis Research. A series of independent lectures on basic principles and new challenges in catalysis research. The lecture series is aimed at PhD students and scientists who are interested in interfacial phenomena and the design and investigation of functional 3D and 2D materials. [more]

Metal oxide photoelectrodes tend to be cheap, easy to fabricate, and show relatively good (photo)chemical stability in aqueous solutions. This makes them attractive candidates as light absorbers in a variety of photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic applications. However, the energy conversion efficiencies of these absorbers are poor compared to photovoltaic-grade materials. [more]
