With the global increase in energy demand and intensifying environmental issues, photocatalysis has become a research hotspot due to its clean and sustainable features. Titanium dioxide (TiO?), a classic semiconductor photocatalyst, offers advantages such as low cost, good biocompatibility, and structural stability. However, its wide bandgap limits its efficiency in utilizing visible light. In recent years, the advancement of nanostructure engineering has brought mesoporous TiO? materials—with tunable pore structures, high specific surface areas, and excellent mass transport properties—to the forefront of photocatalysis research.
To date, extensive studies have focused on TiO? photocatalytic materials, but there has been a lack of systematic reviews specifically on the design and recent progress of mesoporous TiO? photocatalysts. In response, Professor Lan Kun’s team conducted an in-depth analysis of the development history of mesoporous TiO? materials, summarizing the research progress and paradigm shifts in their photocatalytic applications.
