Preparation, Characterization, and Photocatalytic Properties of Self-Standing Pure and Cu-Doped TiO2 Nanobelt Membranes

Hong Zhang et al.

Summary: A traditional hydrothermal method was modified to synthesize ultra-long sodium titanate nanobelts and converted to hydrogen titanate nanobelts for preparing self-standing TiO2 nanobelt membranes with photocatalytic activity. Cu-doped TiO2 membranes exhibited decreased photocatalytic activity due to the introduced intra-gap states by the dopant.

Kinetics analysis of the electron transfer from nano-TiO2 to O2 through on-line absorptions and theoretical modeling

Baoshun Liu et al.

Summary: The electron relaxations during transfer from nano-TiO2 to O-2 were found to be slow and dispersive due to low transfer probability and multi-trapping transport. The amount of O-2 mainly affects electron transfer by changing p(tr), while light intensities and temperatures affect it by changing multi-trapping transport. The disagreement between simulations and later stage relaxations may be due to additional deep traps with a different distribution contributing to the electron relaxations.

Kinetics and energetic analysis of the slow dispersive electron transfer from nano-TiO2 to O2 by in situ diffusion reflectance and Laplace transform

Zhizhou Wu et al.

Summary: The electron transfer to O-2 is a persistent and dispersive process in the photocatalysis over TiO2, lasting for several minutes and following a stretched exponential kinetics. The variable apparent energy barriers (E(i)s) involved in the electron transfer are affected by O-2 amount, light intensity, and temperature, indicating the trap-filling effect plays a role. The slow kinetics of the electron transfer is dependent on the slow rate for an electron transferring from a trap to O-2, and the modulation in trap distribution can increase the photocatalytic activity.

The effect of Cu dopants on electron transfer to O2 and the connection with acetone photocatalytic oxidations over nano-TiO2

Baoshun Liu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that Cu dopants can promote electron transfer from TiO2 to oxygen, reduce the apparent activation energy of photocatalysis, alter the photocatalytic pathway. The different chemical environment of the Cu sites compared to pure TiO2 surfaces is responsible for the decrease in the E-app of photocatalysis.
