Abstract:In this study, Ti3C2T
x
underwent laser treatment to reshape it, resulting
in the
formation of a TiO2/Ti3C2T
x
heterojunction. The interaction with laser light
induced the formation of spherical TiO2 composed of an
anatase–rutile phase on the Ti3C2T
x
surface. Such a heterostructure was loaded
over a titania nanotube (TNT) layer, and the surface area was enhanced
through immersion in a TiCl4 solution followed by thermal
treatment. Consequently, the photon-to-electron conversion efficiency
exhibits a 10-fold… Show more
