Dual heterojunction engineering on TiO <sub>2</sub> for spatial active-site decoupling toward efficient photocatalytic methane coupling
Dual heterojunction engineering on TiO<sub>2</sub> enables the spatial decoupling of active sites, where holes mediate C-H activation and electrons drive O<sub>2</sub> activation. This synergistic strategy achieves a remarkable C<sub>2</sub> hydrocarbon production rate of 1.7 mmol g<sup>-1</sup> h<sup>-1</sup> with 83% selectivity and a remarkable 45-hour stability in the photocatalytic oxidative coupling of methane.
