This volume is a collection of papers which were presented at the 2001 International Conference on Rapid Thermal Processing (RTP 2001) held at Ise Shima, Mie, on November 14-16, 2001. This symposium is second conference followed the previous successful first International RTP conference held at Hokkaido in 1997. The RTP 2001 covered the latest developments in RTP and other short-time processing continuously aiming to point out the future direction in the Silicon ULSI devices and II-VI, III-V compound semiconductor devices.This book covers the following areas: advanced MOS gate stack, i

Energy crises and global warming pose serious challenges to researchers in their attempt to develop a sustainable society for the future. Solar energy conversion is a remarkable, clean, and sustainable way to nullify the effects of fossil fuels. The findings of photocatalytic hydrogen production (PCHP) by Fujishima and Honda propose that “water will be the coal for the future”. Hydrogen is a carbon-free clean fuel with a high specific energy of combustion. Titanium oxide (TiO2), graphitic-carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and cadmium sulfide (CdS) are three pillars of water splitting photocatalysts owing to their superior electronic and optical properties. Tremendous research efforts have been made in recent years to fabricate visible or solar-light, active photocatalysts. The significant features of various oxide, sulfide, and carbon based photocatalysts for cost-effective hydrogen production are presented in this Special Issue. The insights of sacrificial agents on the hydrogen production efficiency of catalysts are also presented in this issue.

Technology: general issues --- photocatalysis --- H2 generation --- water splitting --- solar energy --- hydrogen production --- methanol photo-splitting --- heterojunction --- CuS@CuGaS2 --- electron-hole recombination --- perovskite oxynitride --- band gap --- density-functional theory --- Niobium(V) oxide --- graphitic carbon nitride --- hydrothermal synthesis --- H2 evolution --- heterostructures --- Z-Scheme --- TiO2 --- g-C3N4 --- CdS --- energy --- spherical particle --- disordered surface --- photocatalysts --- MoS2 --- MoSe2 --- photoelectrochemical deposition --- rapid-thermal annealing --- hydrogen evolution --- CO2 reduction --- n/a
