Synergistic effect of Pt0 and M2+ (Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+) on photo(electro)catalytic activity of TiO2 nanorod array thin films


Published in Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology A: Chemistry NULL 2015

Abstract

M2+ (Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+) and Pt0-M2+ loaded TiO2 nanorod film samples were prepared on transparent conducting oxide glass (FTO/F:SnO2). Two step method was used consisting a hydrothermal method to grow TiO2 nanorods on the surface and an ultrasonic-assisted sequential cation adsorption method to modify the nanorods. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV
