Abstract

ethanol photoreforming under simulated solar irradiation, with hydrogen evolution rates being 7.5 times higher than those of pristine ceria nanocubes. This work demonstrates the potential of organic ligand-assisted lattice engineering as a versatile approach for tailoring the optoelectronic properties of ceria, thus opening new avenues for sustainable solar-to-chemical energy conversion.
