摘要： Engineering crystals of titanium dioxide (TiO2) to expose with the most reactive facet has been proved to significantly improve the photocatalytic performance. While most of TiO2 with facets reported in the past were in a particle form, herein we directly grow TiO2 with arbitrarily tunable facets onto the transparent conductive substrate. This could reduce interparticle boundaries, and thus suppress charge recombination and facilitate more efficient charge transport compared to particle-assembled films. Combined systematic experimental and theoretical (Density Function Theory, DFT) studies reveal that fluoride ions (F-) and protons (H+) could play a synergistic role in controlling TiO2 crystals in the way that F- ions change the crystal phase of TiO2 to anatase with low-indexed facets, while H+ ions increase of {001}/{101} ratio. Moreover, the reductive and oxidative sites of facets are clearly elucidated by a selective photodeposition of noble metal and metal oxide. Different photocatalytic tests manifested that {001} facet, which is conventionally believed as the highest reactive facet, does not always show highest performance. On the other hand, the facets reactivity appeared to depend on the types of reactions (reduction or oxidation) and the co-existing synergy of facets. These findings would clarify the ambiguous understanding about the true factors controlling facets, the true order of reactivity of each facet that has still been controversial, and pave a way to improve both efficiency and selectivity of TiO2 in a wide variety of photocatalytic applications in the future.
