What Are Some Common Photocatalysts Activated by UV Light?
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most well-known photocatalysts that are activated by UV light. Other examples include zinc oxide (ZnO), cadmium sulfide (CdS), and various semiconductor materials. These materials often have band gaps that align well with the energy provided by UV light, making them efficient at absorbing and utilizing this form of energy.
