Abstract
The Achilles heel of wide-band photocatalysts such as TiO 2 is the insufficient photogeneration in the visible range under sunlight. This has been a longstanding impediment to large-scale, real-world deployment of titania-based photocatalysis applications. Instead of traditional band engineering through heavy-doping, we suggest enhancing photocatalytic efficiency of lightly-doped TiO 2 using photonic crystal (PC) structures. This strongly increases solar photogeneration through novel wave-interference-based light trapping. Four photocatalyst structures — simple cubic woodpile (wdp), square lattice nanorod (nrPC), slanted conical-pore (scPore), and face-centered cubic inverse opal (invop) — are optimized and compared for light harvesting in the sub- and above-gap (282 to 550 nm) regions of weakly absorbing TiO 2 , with the imaginary part of the dielectric constant 0.01 in the visible range. The optimized lattice constants for the first three, and opal center-to-center distance for invop, are ∼300 - 350 nm. For fixed PC thickness, the ranking of visible light harvesting capability is: scPore > wdp ∼ nrPC > invop. The scPore PC deposited on highly reflective substrate is ideal for photocatalysis given its combination of enhanced light trapping and superior charge transport.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
