Abstract: | Highly photoactive, tetrahedral Ti4+ sites can be created, other than in zeolite cavities and on silica substrate, in mixed-phase TiO2 nanocomposites. The tetrahedral Ti4+ species was shown to be an intermediate formed during the thermally driven phase transformation from anatase to rutile. |
