Highly donor-doped (110) layered perovskite materials as novel photocatalysts for overall water splitting

Abstract

Highly donor-doped (110) layered perovskite materials with a generic composition of A_mB_mO_3m+2 (m = 4, 5; A = Ca, Sr, La; B = Nb, Ti) loaded with nickel have been found to be efficient photocatalysts for overall water splitting with quantum yields as high as 23% under UV irradiation.
