先利用一步水热法制备了具有核壳结构的CdTe@C纳米线,然后以钛酸异丙酯(TIP)作为钛源对CdTe@C纳米线进行二氧化钛包覆,最后通过原位还原HAuCl_4的方法将Au纳米粒子组装到CdTe@C@TiO_2表面形成CdTe@C@TiO_2-Au一维异质结纳米复合材料。用扫描电镜(SEM),X射线能谱(EDX),透射电镜(TEM),X射线衍射(XRD),X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和紫外-可见漫反射光谱(UV-Vis DRS)等对材料进行表征。探究了CdTe@C@TiO_2-Au催化剂在模拟可见光下降解罗丹明B(RhB)的光催化性能。实验结果表明:不同催化剂对RhB的光降解率不一样,其效果依次为CdTe@C@TiO_2-AuCdTe@C@TiO_2pure TiO_2,其中CdTe@C@TiO_2-Au能在270 min的模拟太阳光下对RhB的光降解率达95.3%,这主要得益于CdTe、碳层、TiO_2和具有表面等离子效应的纳米Au的共同作用。

微波辅助溶剂热合成In-Si共改性TiO2的增强光催化性能

利用微波辅助溶剂热法合成了In-Si 共改性的TiO₂ 光催化剂. 粉末X 射线衍射（XRD）、激光拉曼（Raman）光谱、N₂吸脱附（BET）、X射线光电子能谱（XPS）、光致发光（PL）光谱和紫外-可见漫反射光谱（UV-VisDRS）等实验表明,尽管掺杂和改性后TiO₂结晶度略有降低,但不影响光催化剂锐钛相的形成. Si 掺杂入TiO₂晶格使颗粒变小,比表面积变大. In 不能进入TiO₂晶格,在TiO₂表面形成了In₂O₃. 罗丹明B（RhB）降解实验显示,In-Si 共改性TiO₂表现出很高的紫外和可见光催化活性,Si：In：Ti 的摩尔比为0.03：0.02：1 的样品（IST-2）光催化活性最高,紫外光下3 min 即可将RhB降解完全,可见光下120 min RhB降解率为97%,这是由材料的高表面积,In₂O₃-TiO₂复合半导体之间高效电荷转移及染料敏化等共同作用所致. 对于苯酚,光催化降解则相对缓慢,700 min内尚不能降解完全.

金纳米粒子在TiO2气凝胶基质上的行为: 光催化活性评价和结构研究

TiO2 -Au aerogels containing different amounts of gold nanoparticles of different sizes (5 and 16 nm) were successfully synthesized using a sol-gel procedure, and were tested for salicylic acid photodegradation under UV irradiation. The structure and morphology of the obtained materials were investigated using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements. UV-Vis spectroscopy was used to study the optical properties. The effects of the gold nanoparticles on the TiO2 crystallization process were twofold, as follows: (i) the number of crystallized zones was strongly related to the concentration of the gold nanoparticles, and (ii) the smaller gold particles increased the time taken for the crystallization of the samples. It was found that the noble metal-doped samples exhibited higher degradation rates compared with bare titania. It was found that the most active photocatalyst in each studied system was the sample with the highest concentration of gold nanoparticles. Additionally, the highest degradation rate value was obtained with the smallest Au nanoparticles (46.4 10-3 μmol/(L·s).     

TiO2 nanoparticles incorporated with CuInS2 clusters: preparation and photocatalytic activity for degradation of 4-nitrophenol

TiO₂ nanoparticles incorporated with CuInS₂ clusters were prepared in a solvothermal process and characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy-dispersion X-ray analysis (EDX). Compared with pure TiO₂ nanoparticles, the TiO₂ nanoparticles incorporated with CuInS₂ clusters display higher photocatalytic activity with 99.9% of degradation ratio of 4-nitrophenol after 2 h irradiation. In order to investigate the effect of the CuInS₂ clusters on the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ nanoparticles, diffuse reflectance UV–Vis spectra (DRS), photoluminescence (PL) spectra, and photocurrent action spectra were measured. The results indicate that the enhanced photocatalytic activity is probably due to the interface between TiO₂ and CuInS₂ as a trap of the photogenerated electrons to decrease the recombination of electrons and holes.     

Effect of Cl− anions on photocatalytic decomposition of gaseous ozone over Au @ Ag/TiO2 catalyst

Au core Ag shell composite structure nanoparticles were prepared using a sol method. The Au core Ag shell composite nanoparticles were loaded on TiO₂ nanoparticles as support using a modified powder–sol method, enabling the generation of Au @ Ag/TiO₂ photocatalysts for photocatalytic decomposition and elimination of ozone. The sols were characterized by means of ultraviolet–visible light (UV–Vis) reflection spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The activity of the Au @ Ag/TiO₂ photocatalysts for photocatalytic decomposition and elimination of ozone was evaluated and the effect of Cl^? anions on the photocatalytic activity of the catalysts was highlighted. Results showed that Au @ Ag/TiO₂ prepared via the modified powder–sol route in the presence of an appropriate amount of NaCl solid as demulsifier had better activity in the photocatalytic decomposition and elimination of ozone. At the same time, Au @ Ag/TiO₂ catalysts had better ability to resist poisonous Cl^? anions than conventional Au/TiO₂ catalyst. The reasons could be, first, that NaCl was capable of reducing the concentration of free Ag⁺ by adsorption on the surface of Ag particles forming AgCl and enhancing the formation of Au core Ag shell particles, leading to a better resistance to Cl^? anions of the catalysts, and, second, AgCl took part in the photocatalytic decomposition of ozone together with Au @ Ag/TiO₂ catalysts and had a synergistic effect on the latter, resulting in better photocatalytic activity of Au @ Ag/TiO₂ catalysts.     

Preparation and Characterization of Room-temperature Ferromagnetic Ni-doped TiO2 Nanobelts

Ni-doped anatase TiO₂ nanobelts (NBs) with different Ni²⁺ contents were simply prepared by combining ion-exchange with hydrothermal treatment. They were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and magnetic measurement techniques. The results showed that Ni²⁺ cations doped into the TiO₂ lattice and no metallic nickel clusters or nanoparticles could be found. The magnetic results demonstrated that the prepared Ni-doped TiO₂ samples had complex magnetic mechanism including room-temperature ferromagnetic and paramagnetic behaviors, and with the increase of Ni²⁺ content, the magnetization also increased under the same applied field owing to uniform distribution of Ni²⁺ ions in TiO₂ nanobelts.     

Nano Pt–TiO2 for an efficient one-pot photocatalytic synthesis of quinaldines from anilines and ethanol

Nanosized platinum particles loaded on the TiO₂ nanoparticles were prepared to assess its photocatalytic activity in simple one-pot synthesis of quinaldines from anilines in ethanol using UV light. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Brunauer?CEmmer?CTeller surface area, atomic force microscope and diffuse reflectance spectra. XRD patterns revealed that the crystal structure of Pt?CTiO₂ resembled anatase phase of TiO₂. The UV?CVis spectra indicated an increase in absorption of visible light when compared to TiO₂. XPS analysis reveals that platinum particles are present mainly in metallic form. Furthermore, TEM analysis showed non-spherical-shaped Pt?CTiO₂ nanoparticles of the diameter 10?C30?nm. Upon irradiation in the presence of Pt?CTiO₂, aniline and oxidation products derived from ethanol undergo condensation?Ccyclization to afford quinaldines. Higher efficiency of Pt?CTiO₂ than Au?CTiO₂ in the conversion of aniline to quinaldines is due to the higher work function of Pt.     

Synthesis of TiO2 (B) and High‐temperature Stable Anatase TiO2 Nanowires by Hydrothermal Method and Investigation of Photocatalytic Activity

In this study, TiO₂ nanowires (TNWs) were synthesized through hydrothermal method and were characterized using X‐Ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and BET techniques. Monoclinic TiO₂ (B) is the dominant phase of TNWs up to 600°C which is completely transformed into a highly crystalline anatase phase at 800°C. The photocatalytic activity of TNWs, prepared at various calcination temperatures, was investigated in the removal of Rhodamine B as an organic model pollutant. The results indicated that the photocatalytic activity of TNWs, prepared at 800°C calcination temperature, was better than that of other samples and even TiO₂–P25 nanoparticles.     

Sol–gel preparation and characterization of Ag and Mg co-doped nano TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>: efficient photocatalytic degradation of C.I. Acid Red 27

In this study, we successfully prepared pure, mono-doped, and Ag, Mg co-doped TiO₂ nanoparticles using the sol–gel method, with titanium tetraisopropoxide as the Ti source. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), specific surface area and porosity (BET and BJH) measurement, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy techniques. The XRD data showed that the prepared nanoparticles had the same crystals structures as the pure TiO₂. Also, DRS results indicated that the band gap of co-doped photocatalyst was smaller than that of the monometallic and undoped TiO₂ and that there was a shift in the absorption band towards the visible light region. Furthermore, the photocatalytic activity of the prepared catalysts was evaluated by the degradation of C.I. Acid Red 27 in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. The results showed that Ag (0.08 mol%), Mg (0.2 mol%) co-doped TiO₂ had the highest photoactivity among all samples under visible light. It was concluded that co-doping of the Ag and Mg can significantly improve the photocatalytic activity of the prepared photocatalysts, due to the efficient inhibition of the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. The optimum calcination temperature and time were 450 °C and 3 h, respectively.

Electrochemical application of titanium dioxide nanoparticle/gold nanoparticle/multiwalled carbon nanotube nanocomposites for nonenzymatic detection of ascorbic acid

Titanium dioxide nanoparticle/gold nanoparticle/carbon nanotube (TiO₂/Au/CNT) nanocomposites were synthesized, and then characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). A TiO₂/Au/CNT nanocomposite-modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode was prepared using the drop coating method and was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and amperometric current–time response (I-T). The modified material is redox-active. The nonenzymatically detected amount of ascorbic acid (AA) on the TiO₂/Au/CNT electrode showed a linear relationship with the AA concentration, for concentrations from 0.01 to 0.08 μM; the sensitivity was 117,776.36 μA?·?cm^?2?·?(mM)^?1, and the detection limit was 0.01 μM (S/N?=?3). The results indicated that the TiO₂/Au/CNT nanocomposite-modified GC electrode exhibited high electrocatalytic activity toward AA. This paper describes materials consisting of a network of TiO₂, Au, and MWCNTs, and the investigation of their synergistic effects in the detection of AA.
