An oxynitride, TaON, as an efficient water oxidation photocatalyst under visible light irradiation (lambda < or = 500 nm).
Under visible light irradiation (lambda = 420-500 nm), a tantalum oxynitride, TaON, functions as a stable and very efficient photocatalyst for oxidation of water into O2 with a sacrificial electron acceptor (Ag+).
