Funded Activity Summary

Novel nanostructured InVO4 and related vanadates photocatalysts for water splitting under visible light irradiation. This proposal is at the forefront of a number of important fields, and therefore the outcomes are expected to be of great interest to a broad spectrum of industry sectors, including sustainable energy supply, solar energy applications, and environmental purification. This novel material system could lead to highly efficient photocatalysts for application in solar energy to split water to produce hydrogen. The outcomes of this project will position Australian researchers among the pioneering groups in this area and will benefit several major technology-related fields including sustainable energy supply, environmental protection engineering, and materials manufacture technology.
