| contents | Photocatalytic water splitting has emerged as a sustainable pathway for hydrogen production, leveraging sunlight to drive chemical reactions. This review explores the integration of density functional theory (DFT) with machine learning (ML) to accelerate the discovery, optimization, and design of photocatalysts. DFT provides quantum-mechanical insights into electronic structures and reaction mechanisms, while ML algorithms enable high-throughput analysis of material properties, prediction of catalytic performance, and inverse design. This paper emphasizes advancements in binary photocatalytic systems, highlighting materials like $TiO_2$, $BiVO_4$, and $g-C_3N_4$, as well as novel heterojunctions and co-catalysts that improve light absorption and charge separation efficiency. Key breakthroughs include the use of ML architectures such as random forests, support vector regression, and neural networks, trained on experimental and computational datasets to optimize band gaps, surface reactions, and hydrogen evolution rates. Emerging techniques like quantum machine learning (QML) and generative models (GANs, VAEs) demonstrate the potential to explore hypothetical materials and enhance computational efficiency. The review also highlights advanced light sources, such as tunable LEDs and solar simulators, for experimental validation of photocatalytic systems. Challenges related to data standardization, scalability, and interpretability are addressed, proposing collaborative frameworks and open-access repositories to democratize DFT-AI tools. By bridging experimental and computational methodologies, this synergistic approach offers transformative potential for achieving scalable, cost-effective hydrogen production, paving the way for sustainable energy solutions. |
