Dr. Samrana Kazim is an Ikerbasque fellow and Group leader at Basque Centre for Materials, Applications, and Nanostructures (UPV). Before this, she worked as a tenured senior scientist, at Abengoa Research, a corporate research center of a multinational energy company in Spain. She obtained her doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in Materials chemistry. After finishing her Ph.D., she briefly worked as a post-doc at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT Kanpur) and then moved to the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry (IMC), Prague on an IUPAC/UNESCO fellowship and then later was a staff scientist there. She has authored over 80 research articles in reputed journals in the fields of material science, nanotechnology, and energy; also authored and edited book chapters and inventor of numerous patents in energy conversion and storage. Her research interests include synthesis and electro-optical characterization of organic semiconductors, hybrid nanostructured materials for optoelectronics applications, and perovskite solar cells.

Photoelectrochemical Engineering for Solar Harvesting provides an up-to-date appraisal of the photon engineering of innovative catalysts for solar energy harvesting.Sunlight-driven fuel synthesis is the most sustainable and potentially economical option for producing energy vectors through water splitting. Thus this book focuses on the design of photocatalysts and water oxidation catalysts, as artificial photosynthesis and hydrogen fuel production via water oxidation (in place of fossil fuels) are two promising approaches towards renewable energy.The book critically analyzes the overall progress, potential challenges, and the possibility of industrialization of new catalysts in the near future. The primary emphasis of the discussion is on experimental approaches from materials synthesis to device applications, however, there will also be some introduction to relevant photochemistry concepts.Photoelectrochemical Engineering for Solar Harvesting is suitable for materials scientists and chemists who through the use of photonics are in continuous pursuit of improving the efficiencies of different devices used to capture solar energy for the generation of sustainable fuel.
