What Is Photogenerated Electron-Hole Pair of Tungsten Oxide?

Tungsten oxide photogenerated electron-hole pairs means that in tungsten oxide materials, when irradiated by light, photon energy is absorbed and causes electrons to transition from the valence band to the conduction band, while forming holes in the valence band. This process forms photogenerated electron-hole pairs.

In tungsten oxide, the valence band is the energy band with the lower electron energy level, and the conduction band is the energy band with the higher electron energy level. When the energy of the photon is greater than or equal to the bandgap energy of tungsten oxide (usually in the ultraviolet and visible range), the photon is absorbed, causing the electron in the tungsten oxide to be excited to the conduction band, leaving a hole in the valence band. This process is called the generation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs.

The generation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs is one of the fundamental processes of the photoelectric effect. The generated electrons and holes migrate and diffuse in the material, and these carriers can be captured and utilized for electronic devices or photoelectric conversion applications. For example, photogenerated electron-hole pairs in photovoltaic cells can be collected and separated to form an electric current, thereby converting light energy into electrical energy.

In tungsten oxide, the generation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and the subsequent carrier transport are closely related to the energy band structure of the material, the light absorption characteristics, and the electron and hole mobility of the material. These characteristics determine the photoelectric conversion performance and application potential of tungsten oxide.
