Waveguide photoreactor enhances solar fuels photon utilization towards maximal optoelectronic – photocatalytic synergy
Concentrating photo-intensities on photocatalyst has diminishing returns. Here the authors show the catalyst on glass rod waveguide at optimal low intensity results in high efficiency in the gas phase reverse water gas shift reaction in an annular glass cylindrical rod photoreactor.
