Abstract

The piezocatalysis has emerged as one of the effective strategies for catalysis, which uses piezoelectric polarization charges on surfaces to enhance chemical processes. Through the integration of piezoelectricity, photoexcitation, and semiconductor properties, the built-in electric field by mechanical stimulation-induced polarization can serve as a flexible autovalve to modulate the charge transfer pathway and facilitate carrier separation both in the bulk phase and at surfaces of semiconductors. And the piezotronics can also allow the (electro)catalysis to occur in the unilluminated surfaces, opening a new venue for mechanical stimulated catalysis! This chapter focuses on providing insights into the fundamentals of piezocatalysis, piezoenhanced photocatalysis, or photoelectrocatalysis.
