Photocatalysts: Synthesis and Characterization Methods offers a systematic overview of the synthesis and characterization of photocatalysts using various methods and techniques. This book focuses on synthesis methods, nanostructure control, activity enhancement strategies, and characterization of semiconductor-based nanostructures. This book offers guidelines for designing novel semiconductor-based photocatalysts with low cost and high efficiency to meet the demands of the efficient utilization of solar light for energy production, environment remediation, etc.In addition, this book has covered various latest and sophisticated characterization techniques. This includes various spectroscopic, physicochemical, and electrochemical characterization techniques which help the researchers to understand the characteristics of the fabricated photocatalysts. - Covers systematically advanced synthesis and characterization methods and techniques - Provides in-depth understanding of controlled synthesis of photocatalysts specifically and nanomaterials in general - Explains mechanisms of efficient synthesis

Mohammad Mansoob Khan is a Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at Chemical Sciences, Faculty of Science, Universiti Brunei Darussalam, Brunei Darussalam. He earned his PhD from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India, in 2002. He has worked in India, Ethiopia, Oman, and South Korea and has established excellence in teaching and novel research. He is teaching various courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. He has edited three books and authored two books. He has published about 250 research and review articles. He has addressed several conferences as a Plenary speaker (01 talk), Keynote speaker (10 talks) and delivered Invited talks (15 talks). Additionally, he is associated with several journals as editor, associate editor, reviewer, etc. His expertise is in the cutting-edge area of nanochemistry, nanotechnology, materials sciences, and materials chemistry, especially in the field of inorganic and nanohybrid materials such as the synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles, their nanocomposites, metal oxides (such as TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, CeO2, etc.), and chalcogenides (such as CdS, ZnS, MoS2, etc.), perovskites, MXenes, and their nanocomposites. He is also extensively working on the band gap engineering of semiconductors (such as metal oxides and chalcogenides). The synthesized nanostructured materials are used for heterogeneous photocatalysis, hydrogen production, photoelectrodes, solar cells, sensors, and biological applications such as antibacterial, antifungal, antibiofilm activities, etc.
