This article reviews the importance of atomically thin sheets in deciphering and mastering the electronic band structures and charge separation and transfer. It introduces the relevant physics, chemistry, and characterization techniques. Atomically thin sheets provide opportunities for atomic-level decoding and mastery of these photocatalytic phenomena.
Atomically thin sheets (e.g., graphene and monolayer molybdenum disulfide) are ideal optical and reaction platforms. They provide opportunities for deciphering some important and often elusive photocatalytic phenomena related to electronic band structures and photo-charges. In parallel, in such thin sheets, fine tuning of photocatalytic properties can be achieved. These include atomic-level regulation of electronic band structures and atomic-level steering of charge separation and transfer. Herein, we review the physics and chemistry of electronic band structures and photo-charges, as well as their state-of-the-art characterization techniques, before delving into their atomic-level deciphering and mastery on the platform of atomically thin sheets. Atomically thin sheets are ideal platforms for atomic-level deciphering and mastery of electronic band structures and charge separation and transfer. In this review, we analyze the atomic-level photocatalysis occurring on atomically thin sheets.
