Fan Wang Thesis (PDF 2MB) |
Description
This project was a step forward in developing new effective photocatalysts for fine organic synthesis under visible light irradiation. These kind of new photocatalysts are able to facilitate reaction rates by using visible light under moderate reaction conditions through a green, economical and environmentally friendly pathway. This thesis investigated the catalyst synthesis, characterization and the application in organic reactions with high activity and selectivity. The discovery of these new metal nanoparticle photocatalysts may inspire further studies on other efficient photocatalysts and enhance the potential to utilize sunlight via a controlled and environmentally friendly process.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
