Efficient TiO2 Photocatalysts from Surface Hybridization of TiO2 Particles with Graphite‐like Carbon

Zhang, Li‐Wu, Fu, Hong‐Bo, Zhu, Yong‐Fa·2008·Advanced Functional Materials

Abstract

Surface hybridization of TiO 2 with graphite‐like carbon layers of a few molecular layers thickness yields efficient photocatalysts. Photoelectrochemical measurements confirm an electronic interaction between TiO 2 and the graphite‐like carbon. A TiO 2 photocatalyst with a carbon shell of three molecular layers thickness (∼1 nm) shows the highest photocatalytic activity which is about two times higher than that of Degussa P25 TiO 2 under UV light irradiation. The mechanism of the enhanced photocatalytic activity under UV irradiation is based on the high migration efficiency of photoinduced electrons at the graphite‐like carbon/TiO 2 interface, which is due to the electronic interaction between both materials. In addition, a high activity under visible light irradiation is observed after graphite‐like carbon hybridization. TiO 2's response is extended into the visible range of the solar spectrum due to the electronic coupling of π states of the graphite‐like carbon and conduction band states of TiO 2.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
