Abstract

The last decade has seen significant progresses in the application of combinatorial approaches and high-throughput screening in photocatalyst discovery. This paper aims at providing a comprehensive review on the parallel synthesis and high-throughput characterization of photocatalysts, including the development of instrumentation, strategy of experiment, preparation of libraries, high-throughput screening technique and data analysis. The review ends with a summary of the remaining challenges and prospects on combinatorial photocatalyst discovery.
