Recent advances in synchrotron based x-ray spectroscopy enable materials scientists to emanate fingerprints on important materials properties,
e.g., electronic, optical, structural, and magnetic properties, in real-time and under nearly real-world conditions. This characterization
in combination with optimized materials synthesis routes and tailored morphological properties could contribute greatly to the advances in
solid-state electronics and renewable energy technologies. In connection to this, such perspective reflects the current materials research in the
space of emerging energy technologies, namely photocatalysis, with a focus on transition metal oxides, mainly on the Fe2O3- and TiO2-based
materials. |
