“…Doping the TiO 2 surface, or forming a nano-composite with other species, such as noble metals, metal-oxides and carbon, is generally aimed at increasing the activity of the material, chiefly through shifting the band gap towards the visible region and preventing electron/hole recombination. There has been extensive research into this, with studies investigating doping with Fe [96,98,99], Fe 2 O 3 [100], Cu [98] , Sn [101], Zn [102], Zn-S [103], Au-N [104], Al 2 O 3 [105], Pd [88,106], Pt [107], Pt/Au [108], Ag [109,110], g-C 3 N 4 [111,112], graphene [113], Sn and Ce/Mn-graphene [114], other forms of carbon [53,115] and minerals from clay [116]. Many of these have previously been summarised in tables in Martinez et al [98,101].…”
