Abstract

Currently, more research as concerned on environmental remediation for improving our daily lives and the environment. The nanoscale materials designed for environmental application has more concern towards increased surface area, surface modification, and tunability of size. This review mainly describes recent progress in the design, fabrication, and modification of nanostructured semiconductor materials for environmental applications.
