The direct conversion of solar energy into chemical energy through photocatalysts has gained significant attention over the last decade due to its potential to generate alternative fuel in an eco-friendly manner. Semiconductors-based materials are commonly employed in heterogeneous photocatalysis, where light absorption induces electron-hole pairs generation, enabling the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These ROS play a crucial role in transforming molecules into valuable fuels.
