Metal Oxide-Based Heterostructures: Fabrication and Applications provides a concise look at the synthesis strategies and structural, hierarchical and morphological characteristics of metal oxide heterostructures and their utilization in a wide range of diverse applications. The book begins with an introduction to the various multidimensional heterostructures and synthesis aspects and techniques to control the formation of heterostructures are discussed. Then, the impact of synthesis routes on the formation of mixed metal oxide heterostructures and their properties are analysed. The effect of non-metal doping, metal doping and composites of metal oxide heterostructures on properties of heterostructures is also addressed including the opportunities for optimization of the material's performance for specific applications. There is special attention on the surface characteristics of the metal oxide heterostructures and their impact on the performance of the material. Finally, the applications of metal oxide heterostructures in various fields such as environmental remediation, sensing, organic catalysis, photovoltaics, light emitting materials and hydrogen production are reviewed. For each application, there is a discussion on the material's performance and impact on the device parameters along with consideration of barriers and opportunities for commercial translation.
