Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most explored photoelectrode materials of water splitting for hydrogen generation. However, TiO2 has a bandgap of 3.2 eV, which restricts its energy absorption to UV light, and the photoexcited electrons and holes swiftly recombine. Thus, alteration of the band...
