Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An embodiment relates to a photocatalytic composite material comprising (a) a first component that generates a photoexcited electron and has at least a certain minimum bandgap to absorb visible light and a structure that substantially prevents the recombination of the photoexcited electron and a hole; (b) a second component that adsorbs/absorbs an oxide of carbon; and (c) a third component that splits the oxide of carbon into carbon and oxygen using the photoexcited electron.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A photocatalytic composite material comprising: (a) a first component that generates a photoexcited electron and has at least a certain minimum bandgap to absorb visible light and a structure that substantially prevents the recombination of the photoexcited electron and a hole; wherein the first component comprises a photocatalyst; (b) a second component that adsorbs/absorbs an oxide of carbon; and (c) a third component that splits the oxide of…
