Significant efforts have been dedicated to hydrogen production through photocatalytic water splitting (PWS) over the past five decades. However, achieving commercially viable solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency in PWS systems remains elusive. These systems face intrinsic and extrinsic challenges, such as inadequate light absorption, insufficient charge separation, limited redox active sites, low surface area, and scalability issues in practical designs. To address these issues, conventional strategies including heterojunction engineering, plasmonics, hybridization, lattice defects, sensitization, and upconversion processes have been extensively employed. More recently, innovative hybrid strategies like photonic crystal-assisted and polarization field-assisted PWS have emerged, which improve light absorption and charge separation by harnessing the slow photon effect, multiple light scattering, and the piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric properties of materials. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive examination and summary of these new synergistic hybrid approaches, integrating plasmonic effects, upconversion processes, and photonic crystal photocatalysis. It also explores the role of temperature in suppressing exciton recombination during photothermic photocatalysis. This article also highlights emerging strategies such as the effects of magnetic fields, periodic illumination, many-body large-hole polaron, and anapole excitations, which hold significant potential to advance PWS technology and facilitate renewable hydrogen generation.
