Got TiO2 Nanotubes? Lithium Ion Intercalation Can Boost Their Photoelectrochemical Performance

Meekins, Benjamin H., Kamat, Prashant V.·2009·ACS Nano

Abstract

Cations such as H(+) and Li(+) are intercalated into TiO(2) nanotube arrays by subjecting them to short-term electrochemical pulses at controlled potentials (<-1.0 V vs Ag/AgCl). The intercalation of these small cations has a profound effect toward enhancing photocurrent generation under UV light irradiation. A nearly three-fold increase in the photoconversion efficiency (IPCE) was observed upon intercalation of Li(+) ions into TiO(2) nanotube arrays. The intercalation process is visualized by the color change from gray to blue. Spectroelectrochemical measurements were carried out to monitor the absorption changes at different applied potentials. The analysis of the V(oc) decay following termination of UV light shows a significant decrease in the rate of recombination of accumulated electrons upon Li(+) ion intercalation.

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.
