Highly Visible Light Active TiO2−xNx Heterojunction Photocatalysts
Open accessAbstract
Nitrogen doped anatase-rutile heterojunctions are successfully synthesized through an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) modified sol−gel process. An FT-IR study of EDTA modified TiO 2 gel confirms the existence of an ionic intermediate (as indicated by a Δν value of 233 cm −1 ). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Raman spectroscopy are employed to study the phase evolution, phase purity, and crystallite size of samples. Formations of O−Ti−N and N−Ti−N bonds in calcined samples are confirmed using XPS and FT-IR spectroscopy. All EDTA modified samples show significantly higher visible light photocatalytic activity than the unmodified sample. The most active nitrogen doped heterojunction obtained at 400 °C exhibits 9-fold visible light activity in comparison to the standard photocatalyst Degussa P-25. It is proposed that the photo excited electrons (from the visible midgap level) are effectively transferred from the conduction band of anatase to that of rutile causing effective electron−hole separation, which is responsible for the higher visible light activity and lower photoluminescence (PL) intensity.

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.
