摘要

Light utilization is one of the key factors for the improvement of photocatalytic performance.Herein,we design C-TiO2 hollow nanoshells with strong Mie resonance for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution in a dye-sensitized system under visible light irradiation (λ ≥ 420 nm).By tuning the inner diameters of hollow nanoshells,the Mie resonance in hollow nanoshells is adjusted for better excitation of dye molecules,which thus greatly enhances the light utilization in visible light region.This work shows the potential of Mie resonance in nanoshells can be an alternative strategy to increase the light utilization for photocatalysis.
