How is the Performance of Photocatalysts Evaluated Using Solar Simulators?
The performance of photocatalysts is typically evaluated by measuring the rate of a specific photocatalytic reaction under the illumination of a solar simulator. Common evaluation metrics include:
Photocatalytic Activity: Measured as the rate of product formation or reactant consumption. Quantum Efficiency: The efficiency with which absorbed photons are converted into chemical products. Stability: The ability of the photocatalyst to maintain its activity over multiple cycles of use.
