Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, most of the compounding of various semiconductor materials that currently exist requires the use of more complex technical means, which requires high device requirements, and the loading of semiconductors is not easy to control. On the contrary, the photoelectric performance is reduced due to excessive loading.
At the same time, there is still photocorrosion phenomenon in the loading of semiconductor materials, which makes the stability of the prepared catalyst not high, and the service life is very short, which greatly reduces the use efficiency of the catalyst.
