Photocurrent enhancement on TiO2 nanotubes co-modified by N+ implantation and combustion of graphene
摘要: Nitrogen ions doped TiO2 nanotubes (N-TNTs) were synthesized via ion implantation and anodization. Graphene was deposited on the surface of N-TNTs during anodization. After being annealed at the temperature of 450 °C, the samples were determined using FE-SEM, XRD, XPS, and UV-Vis DRS. The photoelectric performance of the samples was confirmed by transient photocurrent. The results indicated that morphology and structure of N-TNTs were improved due to ion implantation. Because of the combustion of deposited graphene during the annealing process, the degree of crystallinity of N-TNTs was improved, and the contents of substitutional N increased. The TNTs modified by ion implantation and combustion of graphene exhibited the best photoelectric performance.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) SolarPACES 2017: International Conference on Concentrating Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems - Santiago, Chile (26–29 September 2017)] - Degradation of tartrazine and hydrogen production simultaneously with combination of photocatalysis-electrocoagulation
摘要: Degradation of tartrazine dye and the production of hydrogen simultaneously with a combination of photocatalysis and electrocoagulation has been investigated. The photocatalytic process was performed by using a catalyst of TiO2 nanotubes that had been synthesized by anodizing method. In electrocoagulation process used Al-SS 316 electrode with variation of voltage: 5V, 10V, and 15V. The structure of TiO2 catalyst with nanotubes morphology was characterized by SEM-Mapping, FTIR, XRD, and UV-Vis DRS. The optimum condition obtained from the electrocoagulation process is at a voltage of 15V with a test time of 4 hours. From the results of photocatalysis with TiO2 nanotubes obtained percent degradation of tartrazine dye equal to 48.86% and simultaneously produced 0.87 ml of H2 with concentration 3.46%. The use of aluminum plate as anode and 316 stainless steel plate as cathode in electrocoagulation process has also succeeded degrading tartrazine dye by 82.45% and produced 3.88 ml of H2 with concentration 12.14%. The result of the combination of photocatalysis and electrocoagulation process obtained degradation conversion of tartrazine dye by 90.68% with final dye concentration to 1.93 ppm and simultaneously H2 products as much as 5.97 ml with a concentration of 12.41% can be produced. The final concentration of tartrazine dye waste from combination of photocatalysis-electrocoagulation process is safe to be disposed into the environment because it meets the quality standard. In addition, the production of H2 has potential as a renewable energy source.

Photoelectrochemical activity of Ag loaded TiO2 nanotube arrays produced by sequential chemical bath deposition for water splitting
摘要: We report on remarkable improvement of photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of TiO2 nanotubes by loading of Ag nanoparticles into them. The silver nanoparticles were loaded on the nanotubes by sequential chemical bath deposition (S-CBD) with different number of deposition cycles. Various characterizations including field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), all confirm that the silver nanoparticles were deposited inside and outside of TiO2 nanotubes. In addition, the PEC properties of the samples were investigated using linear sweep voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The PEC analyses clearly show that the photoelectrochemical activity of the Ag-loaded samples are considerably higher than the bare TiO2 nanotubes (about 3 times). This mostly originates from the improvement of light absorption due to the plasmonic effects in addition to better separation and transport of electron–hole pairs in the Ag-loaded samples relative to the bare TiO2 nanotubes. All results indicate that the maximum efficiency were obtained for the 8-cycle of S-CBD Ag-loading on the bare TiO2 nanotubes.

Effect of Anodization Parameters on the Surface Morphology and Photoelectrochemical Properties of TiO2 Nanotubes
摘要: Titanium sheets are anodized to prepare titanium dioxide nanotubes (TiO2 NTs) with varying chemical polishing times, anodizing voltages, anodizing times and NH4F electrolyte concentrations. The surface morphology of the TiO2 NTs is observed by a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and used to characterize the inner diameter (di), centre to centre distance (l) and wall thickness (w). The photoelectrochemical performance of TiO2 NT arrays is described by measurements of the photocurrent density and the incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE). The data show l can be controlled by the anodizing voltage; in contrast, di and w are influenced by the anodizing time and NH4F electrolyte concentration. Furthermore, the effects of the anodization parameters on the TiO2 NTs’ surface morphology were determined to influence each other. Using the optimum condition of an anodizing voltage of 60 V at 60 min in 0.125 mass % NH4F ethylene glycol, TiO2 NTs were fabricated that showed a photocurrent density of 90.42 μA /cm2 and maximum IPCE of 18.76 % at 300 nm. The results indicate that the effects of the anodization parameters on the photocurrent response of TiO2 NTs are primarily achieved through control of the wall thickness and the ratio of the diameter to the wall thickness (di / w). For a wall thickness that is greater than a critical value, the ratio di / w can reach a range in which the TiO2 NTs show a high photocurrent output.

Microstructure and Electrochemical Behavior of TiO <sub/>2</sub> Nanotubes Coated on Titanium-Based Substrate Before and After Thermal Treatment
摘要: The comparative study of the structure and electrochemical properties of TiO2 layers on the surfaces of commercially pure titanium and Ti6Al4V alloy were performed. The TiO2 surface layers produced by anodization in ethylene glycol-based electrolyte solution using Power Supply MCS-3204 MANSON at 20 V or 40 V for 60 minutes were formed on the titanium substrates by simultaneous surface oxidation and controlled dissolving of oxide film due the fluorine ions. The SEM and X-ray diffraction analyses were performed to determine the properties of the anodized layers before and after heat treatment at 500 °C for 120 minutes. The as-anodized TiO2 nanotubes exhibited an amorphous structure. An anatase phase appeared in annealed nanotube layers of both Ti based substrates. The corrosion behavior in simulated physiological solution was compared for not anodized, anodized and anodized heat treated conditions of both titanium surfaces. The results of the electrochemical measurements corresponded to the microstructure and treatment condition. The porous feature of the anodizing layers on Ti6Al4V substrate led to lower corrosion resistance that increased after the heat treatment.

Hole-induced polymerized interfacial film of polythiophene as co-sensitizer and back-electron injection barrier layer in dye-sensitized TiO2 nanotube array
摘要: In this work, we demonstrate that an ultra-thin film of polythiophene deposited interfacially via hole-induced polymerization on the surface of dye-sensitized TiO2 nanotube array acts as co-sensitizer, and hinders back-electron transfer in a DSSC. Consequently, the dark current, and the recombination reactions can be suppressed, leading to an improved number of electron density at the TiO2 array electrode. Thus, an enhanced photocurrent, and power conversion efficiency of the device is achieved. This logical concept is experimentally justified, and the device, after polythiophene interfacial treatment, demonstrates an enhanced power conversion efficiency by the factor of 39.19%.

Highly efficient multifunctional Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plate coated with MIL-88B(Fe) as a photocatalyst, adsorbent, and disinfectant in water treatment
摘要: Multifunctional MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates were prepared via dip-coating process. Pollutant removals from aqueous solutions were investigated using three different reactions: (1) adsorption of heavy metal ion (Pb2+ and Cd2+), (2) photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange dye (MO), and (3) antibacterial effect for Escherichia coli (E. coli) degradation. Photocatalytic results for dye degradation under UV light irradiation proved the highest activity of the MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates. The degradation rate constant of MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates was approximately four times as that of pure TiO2 nanotubes/Ti under UV irradiation. In addition, this plate showed the effective removal of heavy metal ions by sorption process. The adsorption of Pb2+ and Cd2+on the MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates reached a maximum capacity of 113 and 138 mg/g, and this value was approximately 1.6 times as that of pure TiO2 nanotubes/Ti. In addition, the multifunctional composite plates demonstrated great antibacterial activities towards E. coli. All bacteria colonies killed after 60 min photocatalytic treatment on MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates. The results show the importance of a cooperative effect between the MIL-88B(Fe) metal organic framework (MOF) and Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plates. The simultaneous removals of these pollutants with the high efficiency showed an facile approach for the polluted water treatment via the newly fabricated MIL-88B(Fe)–Ag/TiO2 nanotubes/Ti plate with multiple functions.

WS2 nanodots-modified TiO2 nanotubes to enhance visible-light photocatalytic activity
摘要: WS2 nanodots-modified TiO2 nanotubes (TNT/WND) composites were fabricated via one-pot hydrothermal method for the first time. The physical and photophysical properties of the as-prepared photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM, HRTEM, BET, UV-vis, and PL. The results demonstrated that WS2 nanodots have been successfully anchored on the inner wall of TiO2 nanotubes. TNT/WND composites showed excellent photocatalytic activity toward photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible-light, which mainly attributed to the synergistic effect from relative low recombination rate of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs and high specific surface area.

Visible light thiocyanation of <i>N</i> -bearing aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds using Ag/TiO <sub/>2</sub> nanotube photocatalyst
摘要: In this study, Ag/TiO2 nanotubes (Ag/TNT) were synthesized via simple hydrothermal process, and this photocatalyst was successfully exploited in thiocyanation reactions at room temperature under visible light irradiation. Four classes of important heterocyclic compounds including indole, aniline, pyrrole and 2-amino thiazole derivatives via Ag/TNT treated with ammonium thiocyanate formed the corresponding thiocyano compounds in moderate to excellent yields. Plasmonic property and catalytic performance of Ag nanoparticles (which mainly deposited on the surface of TNT) in absorbing species containing sulfur atoms were key components for the reactions to proceed. This potent, simple and versatile protocol reported for the first time afforded thiocyanation reactions of aniline, pyrrole and 2-amino thiazole derivatives under visible light. The reactions proceeded through a radical pathway by applying air molecular oxygen as a low-cost and environmentally friendly terminal oxidant.
