Abstract

We have first identified a new promotional mechanism of water in the photocatalytic conversion of CO₂ into CO, which is different from the traditional role of proton source. High efficiency (44.5 μmol h⁻¹) achieved through construction of a binary liquid system was determined by systematic research.
