The development history, advantages, applications, challenges and outlook of S-scheme photocatalysts have been summarized and discussed in this article, providing insights for utilizing their potential in renewable energy generation and environmental remediation.
Recently, step-scheme (S-scheme) photocatalysts have received widespread attention in the field of solar fuel development and transformation because of efficient charge spatial separation along with strong redox capabilities. Herein, the development history of S-scheme photocatalysts is summarized and reviewed, from Z-scheme photocatalysts to S-scheme photocatalysts. Advantages of S-scheme photocatalysts are also discussed in depth and detail, including design principles and construction strategies as well as charge transfer mechanisms. In addition, identification characterizations for S-scheme photocatalysts and their solar energy conversion applications are also reviewed. Finally, conclusions and outlooks for solar energy conversion challenges are demonstrated. It provides insights and up-to-date information to enable the scientific community to fully tap into the potential of S-scheme photocatalysts in renewable energy generation and environmental remediation.
