Ultrathin ordered titanium oxide films on Pt(111) surface are prepared by reactive evaporation of Ti in oxygen. By varying the Ti dose and the annealing conditions (i.e., temperature and oxygen pressure), six different long-range ordered phases are obtained. They are characterized by means of low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). By careful optimization of the preparative parameters, we find conditions where predominantly single phases of TiO(x), revealing distinct LEED pattern and STM images, are produced. XPS binding energy and photoelectron diffraction (XPD) data indicate that all the phases, except one (the stoichiometric rect-TiO2), are one monolayer thick and composed of a Ti-O bilayer with interfacial Ti. Atomically resolved STM images confirm that these TiO(x) phases wet the Pt surface, in contrast to rect-TiO2. This indicates their interface stabilization. At a low Ti dose (0.4 monolayer equivalents, MLE), an incommensurate kagomé-like low-density phase (k-TiO(x) phase) is observed where hexagons are sharing their vertexes. At a higher Ti dose (0.8 MLE), two denser phases are found, both characterized by a zigzag motif (z- and z'-TiO(x) phases), but with distinct rectangular unit cells. Among them, z'-TiO(x), which is obtained by annealing in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV), shows a larger unit cell. When the postannealing of the 0.8 MLE deposit is carried out at high temperatures and high oxygen partial pressures, the incommensurate nonwetting, fully oxidized rect-TiO2 is found The symmetry and lattice dimensions are almost identical with rect-VO2, observed in the system VO(x)/Pd(111). At a higher coverage (1.2 MLE), two commensurate hexagonal phases are formed, namely the w- [(square root(43) x square root(43)) R 7.6 degrees] and w'-TiO(x) phase [(7 x 7) R 21.8 degrees]. They show wagon-wheel-like structures and have slightly different lattice dimensions. Larger Ti deposits produce TiO2 nanoclusters on top of the different monolayer films, as supported both by XPS and STM data. Besides the formation of TiO(x) surfaces phases, wormlike features are found on the bare parts of the substrate by STM. We suggest that these structures, probably multilayer disordered TiO2, represent growth precursors of the ordered phases. Our results on the different nanostructures are compared with literature data on similar systems, e.g., VO(x)/Pd(111), VO(x)/Rh(111), TiO(x)/Pd(111), TiO(x)/Pt(111), and TiO(x)/Ru(0001). Similar and distinct features are observed in the TiO(x)/Pt(111) case, which may be related to the different chemical natures of the overlayer and of the substrate.  相似文献

The adsorption of glycine (NH2CH2COOH) was examined by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) on TiO2(110) surfaces at room temperature. A (2x1) ordered overlayer was observed on the TiO2(110)-(1x1) surface. The adsorption of acetic acid and propanoic acid was also investigated on this surface and their STM images were quite similar to that of glycine. Since acetate and propanoate are formed by dissociative adsorption of these acids on TiO2(110), it is proposed that glycine adsorbs in the same way to form a glycinate. The amino group in the glycinate adlayer structurally analogous to those formed from aliphatic carboxylic acids would be extended away from the surface and potentially free to participate in additional reactions. The underlying structure of the TiO2 surface is important in determining the structure of the glycinate adlayer; no ordering of these adsorbates was observed on the TiO2(110)-(1x2) surface.  相似文献

Density functional theory is used to simulate high-bias, constant-current scanning tunneling micrographs for direct comparison with experimental images. Coupled to previous spectroscopic data, these simulations are used to determine the atomic structure of Ti-rich nanostructures on strontium titanate (001) surfaces. These nanostructures have three consecutive TiO(x) surface layers and exploit the distinctive structural motif of the c(4 × 2) reconstruction as their main building block. A structural model of a characteristic triline defect is also proposed.  相似文献

We report on a novel and facile approach for the direct growth of F-doped flower-like TiO(2) nanostructures on the surface of Ti in HF solutions under low-temperature hydrothermal conditions. The influence of the experimental parameters such as temperature, reaction duration, and the HF concentration on the morphology and photoelectrocatalytic activity of the formed F-doped flower-like TiO(2) nanostructures was systematically studied. The presence of HF and the reaction time play an important role in the formation of the F-doped flower-like TiO(2) nanostructures. The synthesized novel F-doped TiO(2) flower-like nanomaterials possess good crystallinity and exhibit high photoelectrochemical activity for water-splitting and photodegradation of organic pollutants compared with P-25, which is currently considered to be one of the best commercial TiO(2) photocatalysts. The approach described in this study provides a simple and novel method to synthesize F-doped TiO(2) nanostructured materials that are ready for practical applications such as the photodegradation of wastewater.  相似文献

Hollowing Sn-doped TiO2 nanospheres via ostwald ripening   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The well-known physical phenomenon Ostwald ripening in crystal growth has been widely employed in template-free fabrication of hollow inorganic nanostructures in recent years. Nevertheless, all reported works so far are limited only to stoichiometric phase-pure solids. In this work we describe the first investigation of doped (nonstoichiometric) materials using Ostwald ripening as a means of creating interior space. In particular, we chose the xSnO2-(1 - x)TiO2 binary system to establish preparative principles for this approach in synthesis of structurally and compositionally complex nanomaterials. In this study, uniform Sn-doped TiO2 nanospheres with hollow interiors in 100% morphological yield have been prepared with an aqueous inorganic route under hydrothermal conditions. Furthermore, our structural and surface analyses indicate that Sn4+ ions can be introduced linearly into TiO2, and preferred structural phase(s) can also be attained (e.g., either anatase or rutile, or their mixtures). Fluoride anions of starting reagents are adsorbed on the surface sites of oxygen. The resultant anion overlayer may contribute to stabilization of surface and creation of repulsive interaction among the freestanding nanospheres. On the basis of these findings, we demonstrate that Ostwald ripening can now be employed as a general hollowing approach to architect interior spaces for both simple and complex nanostructures.  相似文献

Hierarchical TiO(2) nanospheres with controlled surface morphologies and dominant {001} facets were directly synthesized from Ti powder by a facile, one-pot, hydrothermal method. The obtained hierarchical TiO(2) nanospheres have a uniform size of 400-500?nm and remarkable 78?% fraction of {001} facets. The influence of the reaction temperature, amount of HF, and reaction time on the morphology and the exposed facets was systematically studied. A possible growth mechanism speculates that Ti powder first dissolves in HF solution, and then flowerlike TiO(2) nanostructures are formed by assembly of TiO(2) nanocrystals. Because of the high concentration of HF in the early stage, these TiO(2) nanostructures were etched, and hollow structures formed on the surface. After the F(-) ions were effectively absorbed on the crystal surfaces, {001} facets appear and grow steadily. At the same time, the {101} facets also grow and meet the {101} facets from adjacent truncated tetragonal pyramids, causing coalescence of these facets and formation of nanospheres with dominant {001} facets. With further extension of the reaction time, single-crystal {001} facets of hierarchical TiO(2) nanospheres are dissolved and TiO(2) nanospheres with dominant {101} facets are obtained. The photocatalytic activities of the hierarchical TiO(2) nanospheres were evaluated and found to be closely related to the exposed {001} facets. Owing to the special hierarchical architecture and high percentage of exposed {001} facets, the TiO(2) nanospheres exhibit much enhanced photocatalytic efficiency (almost fourfold) compared to P25 TiO(2) as a benchmark material. This study provides new insight into crystal-facet engineering of anatase TiO(2) nanostructures with high percentage of {001} facets as well as opportunities for controllable synthesis of 3D hierarchical nanostructures.  相似文献

The present article reviews recent works in our laboratory about the sensing properties to toxic gases using nanostructured WO(3), TiO(2), FTiO(2), and CuO functionalized quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors. WO(3) and TiO(2) functionalized QCM sensors have much shorter response time than those functionalized by conventional hydrogen-bond acidic branched copolymers for detection of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). FTiO(2) functionalized QCM sensors can improve the gas sensing characteristics by shortening the response time but at the price of partial irreversibility. The sensing mechanism was examined by diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). Varied CuO nanostructures were synthesized by simple modulation of reaction conditions. All the as-prepared CuO was applied on QCM resonators and explored for HCN sensing. Surprisingly, responses of all the sensors to HCN were found to be in an opposite direction as compared with other common volatile substances, offering excellent selectivity for HCN detection. The sensitivity was very high, and the response and recovery were very fast. Comparison of the specific surface areas of CuO nanostructures showed that CuO of higher surface area is more sensitive than that of lower surface area, indicating that the specific surface area of these CuO nanostructures plays an important role in the sensitivity of related sensors. Based on experimental results, a sensing mechanism was proposed in which a surface redox reaction occurs between CuO and Cu(2)O on the CuO nanostructures reversibly upon contact with HCN and air, respectively. The CuO functionalized QCM sensors are considered to be a promising candidate for trace HCN gas detection in practical applications.  相似文献

Two series of nitrogen doped TiO(2) samples with different ratios of anatase to rutile phases were prepared by milling the mixture of P25 TiO(2) and C(6)H(12)N(4) in air and gaseous NH(3) atmosphere, respectively. Compared to air, NH(3) atmosphere plays an important role in delaying the crystallite transformation from anatase to rutile in the mechanochemical reaction of TiO(2) and C(6)H(12)N(4). In contrast to the previously reported results for pure TiO(2), it is found that nitrogen doped TiO(2) with higher content of rutile phase demonstrates higher photocatalytic activity in photodegrading pollutant Rhodamine B under both UV light and visible light irradiation (lambda>420 nm), and the amount of the surface-adsorbed water and hydroxyl groups on nitrogen doped TiO(2) have little correlations with their crystallite phases (anatase or rutile) and photocatalytic activity. The more abundant surface states characterized by photoluminescence spectroscopy together with the lowered valence band maximum of rutile TiO(2) by nitrogen doping are considered as the key factors for the higher activity of nitrogen doped TiO(2) with higher content of rutile phase.  相似文献

X-ray powder diffraction is a standard technique in materials chemistry, yet it is often still used in the laboratory as a "one-hit" technique, e.g. for fingerprinting and following the progress of reactions. It is important, however, that the wealth of information available from powder data is not overlooked. While it is only possible here to scratch the surface of possibilities, a range of examples from our research is used to emphasize some of the more accessible techniques and to highlight successes as well as potential problems. The first example is the study of solid solution formation in the oxide systems Ba(3-3x)La(2x)V2O8 and Sr(4-x)Ba(x)Mn3O10 and in the silicate-hydroxyapatite bioceramic, Ca10(PO4)6-x(SiO4)x(OH)2-x. Database mining is also explored, using three phases within the pseudobinary phase diagram Li3SbO4-CuO as examples. All three phases presented different challenges: the structure of Li3SbO4 had been previously reported in higher symmetry than was actually the case, Li3Cu2SbO6 was found to be isostructural with Li2TiO3 but the cation ordering had to be rationalized, and Li3CuSbO5 was believed to be triclinic, presenting challenges in indexing the powder pattern. Quantitative phase analysis is briefly discussed, with the emphasis both on success (determination of amorphous phase content in a novel cadmium arsenate phase) and on possible failure (compositional analysis in bone mineral); the reasons for the problems in the latter are also explored. Finally, the use of an area detector system has been shown to be of value in the study of orientational effects (or lack of them) in non- and partially-ordered biomaterials, including p-HEMA, annulus fibrosis of lumbar discs, and keratin in the horn of cow's hooves.  相似文献

高效TiO2基光催化材料的开发一直是催化领域的研究热点,主要的策略是如何有效地分离光生载流子.制备多晶相的TiO2材料可引入异质/相结结构使电子与空穴朝不同方向移动,从而避免电子与空穴复合;另外,在TiO2中掺杂其他金属或非金属也可以有效地降低电子与空穴的复合率,掺杂的元素作为电子捕获阱俘获光生电子,以实现电子空穴的有效分离.近些年,作为一种全新的掺杂剂,氧空穴可以有效改善TiO2的光催化活性,所制TiO2具有可见光的全光谱吸收能力,因此该类TiO2呈现出黑色.通过上述方法均可以制备出高活性TiO2基光催化材料,如果能够将这些方法耦合一起,则可能制备出活性更高的光催化剂.因此,本文将异相结结构和空穴掺杂耦合起来,用多孔钛酸盐衍生物在H2中高温焙烧制得一种全新的黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x纳米纤维.不同于其他TiO2基光催化材料,该样品仅由Ti和O元素组成,通过Ti和O元素的组合,形成了双晶结构和空穴掺杂两种特殊的结构,借助场发射(FESEM)、拉曼光谱(Raman)、氮气物理吸脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、热重(TG)、紫外可见漫反射光谱(UV-Vis)和荧光光谱(PL)等表征分析了样品的结构及其光催化性能间构效关系. FESEM结果显示,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x为长1–5mm、宽0.2mm的纤维结构, Raman结果表明,锐钛矿相在特征波段(140 cm–1左右)和TiO2(B)的特征波段(220–260 cm–1)均发生蓝移,说明该两相中均存在氧空穴;该样表面未检测到Ti3+,因此氧空穴可能分散在TiO2(B)和锐钛矿相的体相中.根据黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x和白色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2的失重差,估算出前者的O/Ti原子比为1.97.光催化降解甲基橙实验结果显示,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x的光催化活性是白色双晶TiO2的4.2倍,锐钛矿TiO2的10.5倍,且连续反应10次后未出现失活现象,显示出了良好的光催化稳定性.前期,我们已经证明了白色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2由于具有TiO2(B)和锐钛矿的异相结结构,致使其电子空穴有效地分离,从而表现出优异的光催化活性;本文的PL结果显示,由于氧空穴的引入,异相结与氧空穴两者共同作用,进一步促进了黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x电子与空穴的有效分离,因此黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x表现出高的光催化活性.由于其特殊的结构,黑色TiO2(B)/锐钛矿双晶TiO2–x纳米纤维将在环境与能源领域表现出良好的应用前景.  相似文献

The well-defined and patterned copper clusters formed on the Si(111)-(7 x 7) surface have been employed as a template for selective binding of 1,4-benzenedimethanethiol (HS-CH2-C6H4-CH2-SH, 1,4-BDMT), to form ordered molecular nanostructures. Scanning tunneling microscopic (STM) studies showed that each 1,4-BDMT molecule preferentially binds to two neighboring copper atoms within one copper cluster through the S-Cu interaction with its molecular plane parallel to the surface, whereas some 1,4-BDMT bond to individually adsorbed copper atoms, resulting in an upright configuration. Large-scale two-dimensional molecular nanostructures can be obtained using this patterned assembly technique. Our experiments demonstrate the feasibility for controllable growth of ordered molecular nanostructures on the Si(111)-(7 x 7) surface.  相似文献

Controlling the morphology and size of titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) nanostructures is crucial to obtain superior photocatalytic, photovoltaic, and electrochemical properties. However, the synthetic techniques for preparing such structures, especially those with complex configurations, still remain a challenge because of the rapid hydrolysis of Ti-containing polymer precursors in aqueous solution. Herein, we report a completely novel approach-three-dimensional (3D) TiO(2) nanostructures with favorable dendritic architectures-through a simple hydrothermal synthesis. The size of the 3D TiO(2) dendrites and the morphology of the constituent nano-units, in the form of nanorods, nanoribbons, and nanowires, are controlled by adjusting the precursor hydrolysis rate and the surfactant aggregation. These novel configurations of TiO(2) nanostructures possess higher surface area and superior electrochemical properties compared to nanoparticles with smooth surfaces. Our findings provide an effective solution for the synthesis of complex TiO(2) nano-architectures, which can pave the way to further improve the energy storage and energy conversion efficiency of TiO(2)-based devices.  相似文献

The crystal structure and dielectric properties of slowly cooled A-site-deficient perovskites Li(x)Sr(x)La(2/3-x)□(1/3-x)TiO(3) (0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.33) have been investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), impedance spectroscopy, and (7)Li NMR techniques. In this series, nominal vacancies decrease with Li content, but the total amount of A-site vacancies, n(t) = Li + □, participating in conduction processes remains basically constant. Rietveld analysis of the XRD patterns showed a change of symmetry from orthorhombic to tetragonal when the lithium and strontium contents increased above x = 0.08 and from tetragonal to cubic above x = 0.16. Structural modifications are mainly due to the cation vacancy ordering along the c axis, which disappear gradually when the lithium content increases. In agreement with the structural information, two lithium signals with different quadrupole constants are detected in (7)Li NMR spectra of orthorhombic/tetragonal phases, which have been associated with lithium in two crystallographic z/c = 0 and 1/2 planes of perovskites. In cubic samples, only a single narrow component, indicative of mobile species, was detected. Lithium motion was thermally activated, with activation energies going from 0.35 to 0.38 eV. Evolution of the bulk dc-conductivity preexponential factors along the series showed a maximum that has been first related to the dependence of lithium hopping on the lithium and vacancy concentrations. Finally, changes in the vacancy ordering, produced along the series, affect the dimensionality of the conductivity, indicating that not only the amount of vacancies but also its distribution are relevant.  相似文献

We present density functional theory calculations and first-principles molecular dynamics simulations of formic acid adsorption on anatase TiO(2)(001), the minority surface exposed by anatase TiO(2) nanoparticles. A wide range of factors that may affect formic acid adsorption, such as coverage, surface hydration, and reconstruction, are considered. It is found that (i) formic acid dissociates spontaneously on unreconstructed clean TiO(2)(001)-1 x 1, as well as on the highly reactive ridge of the reconstructed TiO(2)(001)-1 x 4 surface; (ii) on both the 1 x 1 and 1 x 4 surfaces, various configurations of dissociated formic acid exist with adsorption energies of about 1.5 eV, which very weakly depend on the coverage; (iii) bidentate adsorption configurations, in which the formate moiety binds to the surface through two Ti-O bonds, are energetically more favored than monodentate ones; (iv) partial hydration of TiO(2)(001)-1 x 1 tends to favor the bidentate chelating configuration with respect to the bridging one but has otherwise little effect on the adsorption energetics; and (v) physical adsorption of formic acid on fully hydrated TiO(2)(001)-1 x 1 is also fairly strong. Comparison of the present results for formic acid adsorption with those for water and methanol under similar conditions provides valuable insights to the understanding of recent experimental results concerning the coadsorption of these molecules.  相似文献

A novel column made through the condensation reaction of TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) with silanol groups of the fused-silica capillary is described. EOF measurements under various buffer constitutions were used to monitor the completion of reactions. The results indicated that the EOF was dependent on the interactions between buffers and the bonded TiO2 NPs. With formate/Tris buffer, EOF reversal at pH below 5 and cathodic EOF at pH above 5 were indicated. The pI of the bonded TiO2 NPs was found at approximately ph 5. Only cathodic EOF was illustrated by substituting the mobile phase with either glutamate or phosphate buffer. It was elucidated that both glutamate and phosphate buffer yield a negative charge layer on the surface of TiO2 NPs attributable to the formation of a titanium complex. The CEC performance of the column was tested with angiotensin-type oligopeptides. Some parameters that would affect the retention behavior were investigated. The interactions between the bonded phases and the analytes were explicated by epitomized acid-base functional groups of the oligopepetides and the speciation of the surface oxide in different pH ranges. The average separation efficiencies of 3.1 x 10(4) plates/m is readily achieved with a column of 70 cm (50 cm) x 50 mum ID under an applied voltage of 15 kV, phosphate buffer (pH 6.0, 40 mM), and UV detection at 214 nm.  相似文献

We report the solution of the c(4 x 2) reconstruction of SrTiO(3) (001), obtained through a combination of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, direct methods analysis, and density functional theory. The structure is characterized by a single overlayer of TiO(2) stoichiometry in which TiO(5) polyhedra are arranged into edge-shared structures, in contrast to the corner-shared TiO(6) polyhedra in bulk. This structural pattern is similar to that reported by us earlier for the (2 x 1) reconstruction of the same crystal face formed at higher temperature. We discuss probable mechanisms of surface stabilization as revealed by these two solutions which are likely to apply to other reconstructions of SrTiO(3) (001) and, possibly, other perovskites in general.  相似文献

Layers of porous TiO(2) fabricated by electrophoretic deposition at different temperatures with subsequent sintering in air were investigated by transient photocurrent measurements in aqueous electrolyte. The effective diffusion coefficient of excess electrons changed between 1.6 x 10(-5) and 1.4 x 10(-4) cm(2)/s depending strongly on the solution temperature during the TiO(2) layer deposition. Characterization, in terms of average degree of preferred orientation, shows that low deposition temperature results in orientation of the nanocrystals forming the porous film. Consequently, the increase of effective diffusion coefficient is attributed to a higher degree of ordering in the nanoporous TiO(2) layer.  相似文献

The formation process of titania based nanorods during hydrothermal synthesis starting from an amorphous TiO2.nH2O gel has been investigated. Sodium tri-titanate (Na2Ti3O7) particles with a rodlike morphology were prepared by a simple hydrothermal process in the presence of a concentrated NaOH aqueous solution. The ion exchange reaction of the synthesized Na2Ti3O7 nanorods with HCl under ultrasonic treatment promotes a complete sodium substitution and the formation of H2Ti3O7 nanorods. Low-temperature annealing of the as-produced nanorods of Na2Ti3O7 and H2Ti3O7 leads to a loss of the layered crystal structure and the formation of nanorods of condensed framework phases-sodium hexa-titanate (Na2Ti6O13) and metastable TiO2-B phases, respectively. These transformations proceed without a significant change in particle morphology. The nanostructures were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Raman spectroscopy. The structural defects of the synthesized nanorods were investigated by high-resolution electron microscopy. The presence of planar defects can be attributed to the exfoliation of the zigzag ribbon layers into two-dimensional titanates as well as to the condensation of the layers of TiO6 octahedra into three-dimensional frameworks.  相似文献

The properties of Mo ultrathin films deposited on a TiO2(110) surface were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS), as well as by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). The substrate exhibited mainly large (1 x 1) terraces decorated by additional [001] rows (missing or added 1D structures) of reduced TiO(x) phases. Only a few percent of the surface exhibited a cross-linked (1 x 2) arrangement. The deposition of Mo layers at room temperature with a rate of approximately 0.4 monolayer/ min resulted in nanoclusters of 1-2 nm with a low-profile shape (2D-like). Preferential decoration of the atomic steps was not found; at the same time, the 1D defect sites of missing or added rows on the (110) terraces were characteristically decorated by larger Mo nanocrystallites. This behavior indicates that the mobility of Mo atoms is higher on the more reduced regions of the substrate. The high dispersion of the Mo adlayer changed only slightly on annealing up to 700 K; in the range of 900-1050 K, however, a significant increase of the particle size accompanied by splitting of the TiO2(110) terraces was observed. This behavior may be explained by the partial oxidation of the supported Mo (accompanied by the reduction of the substrate) into tetragonal crystallites oriented and slightly elongated in the [001] or [110] direction of the TiO2(110) support. STS measurements indicated that the crystallites or the support/crystallite interface formed above 900 K possesses a wide band gap. The annealing above 1050 K resulted in the disappearance of Mo from the TiO2(110) surface, which may be explained by the formation and sublimation of MoO3 species at the perimeter of the nanoparticles. The change of AES signal intensities for O(KLL) and Mo(MNN) as a function of the annealing temperature also supports this mechanism.  相似文献

One-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional semiconductor nanostructures are desirable for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), since they can provide direct pathways for the rapid collection of photogenerated electrons, which could improve the photovoltaic performance of the device. Quasi-1D single-crystalline anatase TiO(2) nanostructures have been successfully prepared on transparent, conductive fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass with a growth direction of [101] through a facile hydrothermal approach. The influences of the initial titanium n-butoxide (TBT) concentration, hydrothermal reaction temperature, and time on the length of quasi-1D anatase TiO(2) nanostructures and on the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs have been investigated in detail. A power conversion efficiency of 5.81% has been obtained based on the prepared TiO(2) nanostructure photoelectrode 6.7 μm thick and commercial N719 dye, with a short-circuit current density of 13.3 mA cm(-2) , an open-circuit voltage of 810 mV, and a fill factor of 0.54.  相似文献
