Abstract

An artificial photolysis system of water or aqueous alcohol is studied. Upon irradiation of agarose gel system containing colloidal CdS or TiO$_2$ particles with Rh catalyst, hydrogen and oxygen are produced from water. When an alcohol is used as an electron donor in the agarose system, hydrogen and oxidized form of alcohol, the corresponding an aldehyde, is produced. The photolysis mechanism of water or alcohol in the agarose system is proposed.
