24. Based on the photoluminescence study, it was shown that the adsorption of water molecules causes smaller band bending compared to that in air (Anpo, M.; Chiba, K.; Tomonari, M.; Coluccia, S.; Che, M.; Fox, M. A. Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn. 1991, 64, 543).
25. The reasons for the linearity of these plots have not yet been clarified. However, these relationships were observed in almost every case (except in the case of very weak irradiation) in many experiments, and therefore the slopes of the straight lines have been adopted as apparent rate constants for the hydrophilic conversion.
