C. Mitsui et al., Photocatalytic decomposition of pure water over NiO supported on KTa(M)O-3(M=Ti4+,Hf4+,Zr4+) perovskite oxide, CHEM LETT, (12), 1999, pp. 1327-1328
Photocatalytic decomposition of pure water on NiO supporting KTaO3 partiall
y substituted with acceptor was investigated. Formation rate of H-2 and O-2
increased by partially substituting Ta with group 4 element. The increased
photocatalytic decomposition activity by additives might be caused by a ch
arge carrier annihilation.
