A new 0D-2D CsPbBr-CoO heterostructure photocatalyst with efficient charge separation for photocatalytic CO reduction
The effective spatial separation of photogenerated charge carriers is essential for realizing efficient CO 2 conversion. Herein, a new CsPbBr 3 -Co 3 O 4 heterostructure photocatalyst was rationally developed for photocatalytic CO 2 reduction. A facile synthetic strategy based on electrostatic inter...
