Photocatalytic and Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting on TiO₂ via Photosensitization

Figure 9

(a) Simulated electric field intensity plot for bare TiO₂, NP-TiO₂, and NR-TiO₂ nanowires as a function of incident light wavelength. Inset shows schematic model of NP-TiO₂ and NR-TiO₂ nanowires for FDTD simulation. (b, c) Spatial distribution of electric field on the y-z plane for NP-TiO₂ and NR-TiO₂ nanowires. The incident light is along a specific direction (y- or z-axis). Reproduced with permission from [7]. Copyright 2013, American Chemical Society.
