Photocatalysis: Evidence and Effect of Photogenerated Charge Transfer for Enhanced Photocatalysis in WO3/TiO2 Heterojunction Films: A Computational and Experimental Study (Adv. Funct. Mater. 18/2017)

In article number 1605413, Raul Quesada‐Cabrera, Ivan P. Parkin, and co‐workers synthesize nanostructured WO3/TiO2 heterojunction films. Against common observations, this system shows an unusual electron transfer from WO3 to TiO2, as proven by theoretical and experimental evidence. The advantageous...

Zusammenfassung:	In article number 1605413, Raul Quesada‐Cabrera, Ivan P. Parkin, and co‐workers synthesize nanostructured WO3/TiO2 heterojunction films. Against common observations, this system shows an unusual electron transfer from WO3 to TiO2, as proven by theoretical and experimental evidence. The advantageous electronic synergy within a high‐surface‐area substrate allows for record high efficiencies for the degradation of organic pollutants.
