Flower-like TiO2 Nanostructures: Synthesis,Characterization and Photocatalytic Properties

Li Y., Liu E., Fan J., Fan X., Hu X., Liu E., Fan J., Fan X., Wu H., Ma Y., Tang C., Northwest University, CN

In this paper three-dimensional (3D) titania nanostructures assembled with rutile nanorods have been fabricated via a hydrothermal reaction route. The effects of preparation parameters including the reaction temperatures and the reactant concentrations, on the microstructure, [...]

High photocatalytic activity of hydrogen production from water over Fe doped and Ag deposited anatase TiO2 nanotube arrays

Fan J., Fan X., Fan J., Fan X., Hu X., Liu E., Kang L., Tang C., Wu H., Li Y., Liu E., Ma Y., Northwest University, CN

Recently, studies revealed that noble metal (Au, Ag, Pd) nanoparticles can improve the photoresponse property of TiO2 in the visible region based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect, and thus enhance the activity [...]
