Abstract

Hybrid photocatalysts consisting of a ruthenium complex and p-type photoactive N-doped Ta₂O₅ anchored with an organic group were successfully synthesized by a direct assembly method. The photocatalyst anchored by phosphonate exhibited excellent photoconversion activity of CO₂ to formic acid under visible-light irradiation with respect to the reaction rate and stability.
