Photochemical Water Splitting (eBook, ePUB)

Materials and Applications

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive overview of photocatalytic water splitting theory and technology with a focus on advances in photocatalyst materials. It examines how to improve the performance of photocatalysts in terms of both catalytic activity and stability as well as how to reduce material costs. It also discusses material synthesis, focusing on control of the particle size, morphology, orientation, and aspect ratio as related to the cost-effectiveness of large-scale material and device manufacturing for water splitting.

She received her B.Sc. degree in 1989 from MDS University, Ajmer (India), M.Sc. in 1991, M. Phil. in 1993 and B.Ed. in 1996. She obtained her Ph.D. degree on Organic Conducting Materials from M. L. S. University, Udaipur (India) in 2006. She worked at the SRD Modi College, Kota (1996-1998), and at the Govt. PG College, Bundi (1998-2012) as a Lecturer in Chemistry. She carried out two years postdoctoral research fellowship from 2008 to 2009 at the Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan University and worked on photocatalytic nano-materials for water splitting. Her research interests are organic superconductors, functional materials, nanomolecular devices and photochemistry of water splitting. She is the author or co-author of more than 30 publications in international scientific journals of high impact factor with good number of citations, contributed in 7 chapters and 3 books of national /international publications and has also been granted one international patent.

Dr. Ru-Shi Liu is currently a Professor at the Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan University. He received his B.Sc in Chemistry from Shoochow University (Taiwan) in 1981, M.Sc in nuclear science from the National Tsing Hua University (Taiwan) in 1983, respectively. From 1983 to 1985, He worked at the Materials Research Laboratories, the Industrial Technology Research Institute (Taiwan). He obtained two Ph.D. degrees in chemistry - one from National Tsing Hua University in 1990 and the other from the University of Cambridge in 1992, separately. He was an Associate Professor at the Department of Chemistry of National Taiwan University from 1995 to 1999 before he was promoted to a full professor in 1999. He also serves as an adjunct Pearl Chair professor at National Taipei University of Technology since August 2014. His research is focused on the field of Materials Chemistry. He is the author or co-author of more than 550 publications in international scientific journals. He has also been granted more than 100 patents.

Dr. Jiujun Zhang received his B.Sc, and M.Sc from Peking University in 1982 and 1985, and his Ph.D. in Electrochemistry from Wuhan University in 1988, respectively. He is now a Principal Research Officer and Core Competency Leader at the National Research Council of Canada Energy, Mining & Environment Portfolio (NRC-EME).
