{"Image DocumentName": "Photocatalysts ENERGY BAND ENGINEERING Some important aspects:", "Image ImageDescription": "Optical absorption: direct and narrow bandgap semiconductors are more likely to exhibit high absorbance \uf0e0 suitable for the efficient harvesting of low energy photons. Disadvantages: recombination electron/hole. Band-edge positions are frequently incompatible with the electrochemical potential necessary to trigger specific redox reactions. Modulate the band gap and band-edge positions in a precise manner \uf0e0 different strategies. Improvement of light sensitization by the inclusion of quantum dots, plasmon-exciton coupling between anchored noble metal nanoparticle co-catalysts and the host semiconductor, and photon coupling in semiconductor photonic crystals.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
