Abstract
Abstract Piezoelectric‐based catalysis that relies on the charge energy or separation efficiency of charge carriers has attracted significant attention. The piezo‐potential induced by strain or stress can induce a giant electric field, which has been demonstrated to be an effective means for charge energy shifting or transferring electrons and holes. In recent years, intense efforts have been made in this subject, and the research has mainly focussed on two aspects: i) Alteration of surface charge energy by piezo‐potential in piezocatalysis; ii) the separation of photo‐generated charge carriers and the catalytic activity enhancement of an integrated piezoelectric semiconductor or coupled system composed of…
