Direct splitting of pure water into hydrogen and oxygen was demonstrated using the rutile TiO2 powder under band gap irradiation. The successful water splitting results at least in part from the intrinsic properties of the rutile surface that is less sensitive to photoreduction of O2, a reverse reaction in water splitting.
采用锐钛矿 TiO2 粉末在带隙辐照下，直接将纯水分解为氢气和氧气。水分解的成功至少部分归因于锐钛矿表面的固有特性，该表面对 O2 的光还原（水分解的逆反应）不那么敏感。
