Abstract:A series of Zn 2+ and Eu 3+ co-doped TiO 2 catalysts were prepared by a modified sol-gel method. The prepared catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection spectroscopy(UV-vis DRS). Characteristic results clearly show that all of Zn 2+ and Eu 3+ co-doped TiO 2 samples exclusively consist of primary anatase crystallites, the co-doping can retard the grain growth of TiO 2 and decrease the aggregation of TiO 2 nanoparticle… Show more
