Publisher page

Abstract

Nanosized semiconductors (semiconductor clusters) have the potential to revolutionize the fields of photooxidation and photocatalysis through the combined effects of quantum confinement and their unique surface morphologies. Photocatalytic oxidation as applied to environmental remediation (i.e., detoxification of chemical wastes), green/sustainable chemistry, as well as alternative energy paths (i.e., splitting of H 2 O to produce H 2 ) has already experienced improvements in activity, efficiency, and stability through the use of semiconductor nanoclusters based on materials such as TiO 2 , MoS 2 , WS 2 , MoSe 2 , FeS 2 , and SnO 2 . Issues such as improved control of size and surface chemistry play an important role in the success of these semiconductor nanocatalysts. This review explores the effect of advances in the fields of nanoscience and photocatalysis for current and future applications.
