Photooxidation reactions promoted by the photochemical activity of nanoporous carbons

[EN] After the early works in 1960’s and 70`s reporting the photochemistry of ZnO and TiO2 electrodes and their potential application in water splitting and environmental remediation [1,2], heterogeneous photocatalysis has become a popular topic. However, the low photonic efficiency of most semiconductors is still a challenge, thus optimizing the optical features of semiconductor materials remains a largely investigated topic [3,4].
