AbstractPhotocatalysis has received much attention as it is considered one of the potential solutions for solar energy conversion and counteracting environmental degradation. In order to promote the research work of the field and meet the requirements of practical applications, it is necessary to develop high efficiency visible-light-driven photocatalysts, especially the red semiconductor photocatalysts. This review aims to sum up the progress recently made in this field, concentrating on the scientific and technological possibilities offered by three kinds of red semiconductor photocatalysts for water splitting, organic contaminant decomposition, and CO

The perovskite oxynitride SrTaO2N is a promising compound for solar energy conversion because it has strong visible light absorption at wavelengths as long as 650 nm. However, the photocatalytic activity of SrTaO2N is generally very poor. We managed to improve its activity by incorporating Sr in its B site.
