Molecular Mechanism of Water Oxidation Reaction at Photo-Irradiated TiO₂ and Related Metal Oxide Surfaces

Article Preview

Abstract:

Recent studies on the molecular mechanism of water photooxidation (or oxygen photoevolution) reaction on TiO2 and related metal oxides or oxynitrides are reviewed. It is shown that a lot of experimental and theoretical studies give definite support to our recently proposed new mechanism, called “nucleophilic attack of H2O” or “Lewis acid-base” mechanism. The new mechanism has the prominent features that it possesses energetic and kinetics different from the conventional electron-transfer mechanism and can explain water photooxidation reaction on visible-light responsive metal oxides or oxynitrides, contrary to the conventional one. The result indicates that the new mechanism is useful for searching for new efficient visible-light responsive materials for solar water splitting.
