Abstract: This paper provides an overview of recent studies on energy storage in bifunctional TiO 2 composite materials under UV and visible light. The working mechanism, property improvements and applications of these bifunctional TiO 2 composite systems are introduced, respectively. The latest results obtained in our laboratory, especially a new process for photoelectric conversion and energy storage in TiO 2 /Cu 2 O bilayer films under visible light, are also presented. Hopefully this review will stimulate more fundamental and applied research on this subject in the future.
