Effects of Redox Potential of Metallophthalocyanine Dye on Photocatalytic Activity of KTa(Zr)O-3 for Water Splitting
Photocatalytic activity of dye-modified KTaO3 correlated with the first redox potential of phthalocyanines. It was found that the most effective dye for improving water-spritting activity was Cr-phthalocyanine (Cr-Pc) with a redox potential of -0.8 V vs. SCE.
