Fabrication of Ag-loaded multi-walled TiO₂nanotube arrays and their photocatalytic activity

Surface reconstruction, oxygen vacancy distribution and photocatalytic activity of hydrogenated titanium oxide thin film

“…The total cycle number of ALD deposition was 400. The ALD system and operation procedure have been presented previously [31,32].…”

Ag-loaded TiO2/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites for enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity

“…Au, Pt or Ag, but focus mainly on the synthetic approach and do not examine their efficiency for the photocatalytic removal of a pollutant [11,16]. [13,14,21], Ag/rGO [22][23][24] and even Ag/TiO 2 /GO [18,25], while Ag/TiO 2 /rGO has received significantly less attention. In all these studies, the two critical issues consist of reducing the photocatalyst absorption energy below 3 eV and separating photogenerated electrons and holes efficiently so that these photogenerated carriers can be used for reduction and/or oxidation reactions before they recombine.…”

Doping of anodic nanotubular TiO2 electrodes with MnO2 for use as catalysts in water oxidation

“…Because of the high-aspect-ratio structure of nanotubes, a few successful examples exist of homogenously doped foreign elements over the entire surface of anodic TiO 2 nanotubes without complicated processes [15][16][17][18][19]. Recently we have reported on the use of the potential shock method, in which an abrupt positive-biased potential is imposed on TiO 2 nanotubes in an electrolyte containing negatively charged foreign ions immediately after anodization completed.…”
