In this work,we set out to elucidate the light-harvesting properties of various random and ordered photocatalyst supports(PSs)with different macropore *** accomplish this,we propose two studies of increasing relevance,enabled by computed tomography(CT)reconstructions and raytracing COMSOL Multiphysics simulations:(a)a 360-degree light release study approximating a PS situated within a compound parabolic concentrator(CPC)or cylindrical LED reactor with open ends;and(b)the same systemas before but with closed *** ordered geometry is of interest,as it can be 3D printed at scale with a tailored morphology and porosity,and it can potentially be refined using machine learning models to optimize its light-harvesting *** will be shown,the local volumetric light absorption(LVLA)data suggests that an ordered PSwith amore open pore interior and a smaller pore exterior would begin to approach the more isophotonic light-harvesting properties of random PSs.

The phenomenon of oxygen adsorption induced surface restructuring is widespread across various metal-oxygen systems, yet its impact on initiating bulk oxide formation remains largely unexplored. Through in situ atomic-resolution electron microscopy observations of surface oxidation of Cu(110) and Cu85Au15(110), we unveil intermittent oxide-film growth modulated by oxygen-induced surface restructuring. This modulation is evidenced by repeated pinning of the Cu2O growth front at isolated Cu columns of the c(6×2)-O reconstruction, owing to required long-range diffusion of Cu and O atoms to the Cu2O growth front. We reveal that Cu vacancies, generated at the Cu2O growth front, are injected into the Cu2O/Cu interface, inducing hill and valley undulation of the Cu2O film. In contrast, atomic vacancies produced during the Cu85Au15(110) oxidation preferentially migrate into interfaces between Au-rich and Au-poor regions in the bulk, resulting in a flat and adherent Cu2O film. These findings demonstrate the critical role of oxygen-induced surface restructuring in modulating oxide film growth kinetics and the manipulability of the fate of injected vacancies by alloying, thereby offering insights applicable to a broader range of metal-oxygen systems for fine-tuning oxidation kinetics and enhancing oxide/metal interfacial adhesion.
