How to make full and efficient use of solar energy is the driving force leading the development of photocatalytic materials. Photothermal catalysis has attracted great attention of researchers because it can use full- spectrum suniight to stimulate the synergy between luminescence catalysis and thermal catalysis to achieve high utilization efficiency of solar energy. In thls paper, the design, synthesls, performance opiimizaiion and practical application of photo-thermo-catalytic materials are reviewed. The future development trend of photothermocatalytic materials is also prospected here. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
