Thermo-driven photocatalytic CO reduction and H2 oxidation over ZnO via regulation of reactant gas adsorption electron transfer behavior

Photothermal catalysis is a widely researched field in which the reaction mechanism is usually investigated based on the photochemical behavior of the catalytic material. Considering that the adsorption of reactants is essential for catalytic reactions to occur, in this study, the synergistic effect of photothermal catalysis is innovatively elucidated in terms of the electron transfer behavior of reactant adsorption. For the H2 + O2 or CO + H2...
