Photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds requires photoexcited holes with strong oxidative power in the valence band (VB) of semiconductors. Although numerous types of doped semiconductors, such as nitrogen-doped TiO2, have been studied as visible-light-sensitive photocatalysts, the quantum yields of these materials were very low because of the limited oxidation power of holes in the nit...

Visible-light-responsive tubular N-doped TiO2 nanocrystallites were synthesized via an environment-conscious solvothermal treatment of protonated titanate nanotubes in an NH4Cl/ethanol/water solution.

conclusions according to the results, it can be concluded that the titanium catalyst doped with iron (fe+3-tio2) processes is an appropriate method for reducing atrazine in polluted water resources. results the results demonstrated that the atrazine removal rate increased by decreasing the initial atrazine concentration and the maximum rate of atrazine removal (41.72%) was at ph = 11, atrazine ...

We report on growth and physical properties of vanadium dioxide (VO2) films on model conducting oxide underlayers (Nb-doped SrTiO3 and RuO2 buffered TiO2 single crystals). The VO2 films, synthesized by rf sputtering, are highly textured as seen from X-ray diffraction. The VO2 film grown on Nb doped SrTiO3 shows over two orders of magnitude metal–insulator transition, while VO2 film on RuO2 buff...

Hierarchical porous F-doped TiO2 microspheres exhibiting high visible light photocatalytic activity have been fabricated by a one-step low-temperature hydrothermal approach without using any templates.

Cu2+,Ce3+-doped nanostructure TiO2 -coated Nd3+ (TiO2 /Nd3+) were prepared by sol-gel method. TiO2 were synthesized by the sol-gel method using tetra n-butyl orthotitanat (TBT) as a precursor. The prepared nanoparticles characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM- EDS and TEM. The XRD showed that the major phase of nanocomposite is anatase. The morphology of the TiO2/Nd3+/Cu2+and TiO2 /Nd3+/Ce3+ microsphe...

Effects of d-doping on barriers effective heights and series resistance of highly doped n-type GaAs/AIAs/GaAs/AlAs/GaAs heterostructures, grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at 400?°C, have been studied. As it was expected, inclusion of an n+ d-doped layer at each hetero-interface has reduced the barriers heights and series resistance of the structure significantly, while p+ d-doped layers ha...

In the current study, pure TiO2 and Cr-doped TiO2 (Cr@TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized via sol-gel method and the resulting materials were applied to prepare the porous TiO2 electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). It is hypothesized that the advantages of the doping of the metal ions into TiO2 lattice are the temporary rapping of the photogenerated electron-hole (charge carriers)...
