A supramolecular cerium-based metal-organic gel (MOG) was used as a soft precursor to prepare a defect-rich CeO2 photocatalyst. The resulting material exhibited enhanced visible-light-driven hydrogen evolution from glucose, outperforming conventionally synthesized ceria.

Abstract
A supramolecular cerium-based metal-organic gel (MOG) was used as a soft precursor to prepare a defect-rich CeO2 photocatalyst. The resulting material exhibited enhanced visible-light-driven hydrogen evolution from glucose, outperforming conventionally synthesized ceria. Spectroscopic analysis revealed higher oxygen vacancy content and improved charge separation, highlighting the potential of MOG-derived photocatalysts.File in questo prodotto:
