More Information
Summary:Particles comprising a core and a shell at least partially surrounding the core, wherein the core comprises a transition metal dichalcogenide and the shell comprises a transition metal oxide are disclosed. The particles can possess enhanced absorption of light in the visible and UVB/UVA spectrum, without inhibiting their inherent oxidative properties significantly. The particles inserted into a SODIS platform can possess equal or greater photocatalytic properties compared to the current TiO2 SODIS method.
