E-mail: xxh@Abstract: TiO 2-SiO 2-Ag composites are fabricated by depositing TiO 2 films on silica substrates embedded with Ag nanoparticles. Enhancement of light absorption of the nanostructural composites is observed. The light absorption enhancement of synthesized structure in comparison to TiO 2 is originated from near field enhancement caused by the plasmonic effect of Ag NPs, which can be 10demonstrated by the optical absorption spectra, Raman scattering investigation and the increase of the photocatalytic activity. The embedded Ag nanoparticles are formed by ion implantation, which effectively prevents Ag to be oxidized through direct contact with TiO 2. The suggested incorporation of plasmonic nanostructures shows a great potential application in highly efficient photocatalyst andultra-thin solar cell.15 Keywords: Material physics and chemistry; TiO 2; Ion implantation; Photocatalytic efficiency0 IntroductionTitanium dioxide (TiO 2) has strong photocatalytic activity, high chemical stability, a long lifetime of photon-generated carriers, nontoxicity and low cost, which makes it one of the most 20 widely used photocatalyst for hydrogen production and solar cells as well as water and air remediation [1-3]. At modern time TiO 2 becomes a hot research topic because of the potential applications in the field of environment and energy [4-6]. Unfortunately, owing to its wide band gap3.2 eV (at 390 nm), only ～ 4% solar spectrum can be utilized. During the last decades, great efforts have been made to modify the TiO 2 to enhance the visible light response. A considerable 25 increase in the photocatalytic activity in the visible region has been observed by doping [7-10]. However, to date, the doping structure is lack of reliable controllability. Recently, metallic nanostructures have been introduced into semiconductor film (e.g. ZnO, InGaN quantum wells) for enhancement of light emission, photocurrent solar cells [11-14] and photocatalyst [15-17] by a strong plasmonic effect of metallic nanostructures. In order to maximize the utilization rate of UV region 30 of the sunlight, in this letter, we design a new composite structure to enhance the light absorption efficiency by coupling TiO 2 to Ag nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in SiO 2 formed by low energy Ag ion implantation. Ag NPs show a very intense localized surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the near-UV region [18], which strongly enhances the electric field in the vicinity of the Ag NPs. This enhanced electric field at near-UV region could increase the UV light absorption to boost the 35 excitation of electron-hole pairs in TiO 2 and thus increase the photoelectric conversion efficiency. In this kind of structure, the Ag NPs embedded in SiO 2 serves two purposes. Firstly, SiO 2 as a protective layer prevents Ag to be oxidized through direct contact with TiO 2. Secondly, the size and depth distributions of the embedded Ag NPs can be controlled by choosing implantation parameters and post-implantation thermal treatment [19], which can tune the SPR spectrum of Ag 40NPs to match the absorption edge of TiO 2. Thus, it is possible to design nanostructures that concentrate the light surrounding near Ag NPs, that enhance the light absorption of TiO 2 film.1 Experimental SectionHigh purity silica slides were implanted by Ag ions at 20, 40 and 60 kV to fluence of 5×1016 ions/cm 2 and at 40 kV to 1×1017 ions/cm 2 using a metal vapor vacuum arc ion source implanter, 45 respectively. The TiO 2-SiO 2-Ag nanostructural composites were obtained by depositing TiO 2 films (100 nm thick) on the surface of the as-implanted silica substrates using direct-current (DC) reactive magnetron sputtering system. For comparison, an un-implanted silica substrate was deposited with TiO 2 film under the same growth condition. Subsequently, all deposited samples were annealed at 500 °C in oxygen gas for 2 hours to obtain anatase phase TiO 2 film. The TiO 2 50covered silica substrates with embedded Ag NPs are named S1-S4 as shown in Table 1. The optical absorption spectra of all the samples were measured using a UV-vis-NIR dual-beam spectrometer (Shimadzu UV 2550) with wavelengths varied from 200 to 800 nm. Raman scattering spectra of all the samples were collected using a micro-Raman system (LabRAM HR800). An Ar laser (488.0 nm) was used as the excitation source, and the laser power was kept55 at 10 mW. The microstructure of the samples was investigated by using a JEOL JEM 2010 (HT) transmission electron microscopes (TEM) operated at 200 kV.Tab. 1 Ag ion implantation parameters for all samplessample Fluence of ion implantation(ions/cm2)Energy of ion implantation(kV)S1 5×1016 20S2 5×1016 40S3 1×1017 40 S4 5×1016 6060 2 Results and DiscussionThe photocatalytic efficiencies of TiO 2 and TiO 2-SiO 2-Ag nanostructural composites with an area of 4 cm 2 were evaluated by measuring the degradation rates of 5 mg/L methylene blue (MB) solution under UV-vis irradiation. A mercury lamp (OSRAM, 250 W with characteristic wavelength at 365 nm) was used as a light source. The TiO 2 and the TiO 2-SiO 2-Ag composites 65 films were placed into 40 mL MB solution with a concentration of 5 mg/L. Before irradiation, the samples were put into 40 mL MB solution for 30 minutes in the darkness to reach absorption equilibrium. The decolorization of MB solution was measured by an UV-vis spectrometer (Shimadzu UV 2550) at the wavelength of 664.0 nm. The absorption spectrum of the MB solution was measured at a time interval of 30 minutes and the total irradiation time was 4 hours. 70 Fig. 1 shows the optical absorption spectra of S1-S4 and the TiO 2 films. The absorption edge around 390 nm belongs to the intrinsic exciton absorption of TiO 2 [20]. The obvious absorption peaks at about 419-433 nm can be attributed to the SPR of Ag NPs formed by Ag ion implantation[21]. As seen the SPR of Ag NPs is close to the exciton edge (around 390 nm) of anatase TiO 2. Therefore, it is expected that an efficient energy transfer from the Ag NPs to TiO 2 can be occured. 75The position of Ag SPR absorption peak of the S2 is around 419 nm, which is blue shift comparing to that of the other three samples. The SPR peak of the S2 is the most close to the anatase TiO 2 exciton energy, therefore the strongest resonant coupling effect between Ag SPR and the excitons of the TiO 2 films maybe produce more effectively.80Fig. 1 The optical absorption spectra of S1-S4 and the pure TiO2 filmTo illustrate the strong near field induced by the SPR of Ag NPs, the Raman scattering spectra of S1-S4 and TiO2 are measured as presented in Fig. 2. The observed Raman bands at 144, 85199, 399, 516 and 640 cm-1 can be assigned to the Eg, Eg, B1g, A1g, or B1g and an Eg vibration modes of anatase phase, respectively, which are consistent with the characteristic patterns of pure anatase without any trace of rutile or brookite phase [22]. It is found that the Raman intensity for S1-S4 increase compared to that of TiO2, and the S2 shows the strongest Raman intensity. It is well known that Raman scattering intensity is proportional to the square of the electric field 90intensity [23], thus stronger Raman scattering attained from the TiO2-SiO2-Ag structure indicates that a stronger electric field is induced by Ag NPs embedded in SiO2 substrate. When the Ag NPs are irradiated by laser in spectral area of particle absorption band longer wavelength shoulder, a strong near field is produced due to the SPR, so Raman scattering is enhanced. As seen from Fig.2, the enhancement factors of Raman scattering of S1-S4 is different because of various coupling 95field efficiency. Thus, it is possible to conclude that the implantation energy and fluence have determined the Raman scattering enhancement factor.Fig. 2 The Raman scattering spectra of S1-S4 and the pure TiO2 filmTo understand the relationship between the size and depth distributions of Ag NPs in silica 100glass and the Raman scattering enhancement factor of the TiO2-SiO2-Ag nanocomposites, themicrostructural characterization of the S1-S4 were investigated by TEM as shown in Fig. 3. The TEM image of the S1 (Fig 3 (a)) shows that the size of Ag NPs appears to have a wide distribution.However, increasing the implantation energy to 40 kV as shown in Fig 3 (b), the Ag NPs in the S2 105are quite uniform in size (with an size of 20 nm) and distribute at nearly the same depth of 7 nm from the surface. Under high energy ion implantation, more heat will be induced in the sample in short time, which enhances the diffusion of Ag atoms. Therefore, the implanted Ag ions trend to aggregate to larger NPs around the projected range [24-26]. The near field induced by the SPR of Ag NPs is very strong due to the presence of the formed Ag NPs with bigger size and the near-field 110dipolar interactions between adjacent particles [27]. On the other hand, the dipolar interactions between adjacent particles with near the same size can result in a blue shift of SPR [28], thus the blue shift in the SPR peak of Ag NPs observed in the Fig. 1, which may produce a strongest resonant coupling effect between the SPR of Ag NPs and TiO2. It means the stronger near field can be induced. In this case, the S2 has the strongest Raman scattering enhancement factor. The 115size of Ag NPs in the S1 is smaller and the distribution is wider than that in the S2. It means that the near field induced by SPR of Ag NPs in the S1 is weaker than that in the S2. Further increasing the implantation energy to 60 kV as presented in Fig 3 (d), Ag NPs in the S4 reside deeper below the surface than that in the S2. Since the SP is an evanescent wave that exponentially decays with distance from the metal particles to the surface [29], the enhancement of 120Raman scattering decrease progressively with the increase of distance between Ag NPs with the TiO2 film, therefore Raman scattering intensity of the S4 has almost no enhancement. When the ion implantation fluence is increased to 1×1017 ions/cm2 with implantation energy of 40 kV (S3) as displayed in Figure 3 (c), large Ag NPs with size about 15 nm are formed near the surface and the small ones in deeper SiO2 matrix. The surface sputtering effect plays an important role for ion 125implantation at high fluence, the formed small Ag NPs near the surface are sputtered away by the subsequent implanted ions, as a result the large Ag NPs are populated near the surface of the S3[24].The Raman scattering enhancement factor is small with increasing the implantation fluence.Therefore, the Raman scattering enhancement demonstrates that the strong near field is actually induced by introducing Ag NPs, the increased field could locally concentrate the light surrounding the Ag NPs and thus enhance the absorption of light.130Fig. 3 Cross-sectional TEM images of the (a) S1, (b) S2, (c) S3, (d) S4.In order to study the enhancement of light absorption in TiO2-SiO2-Ag nanostructural 135composites, the photocatalysis activities of the S1-S4 are investigated by the UV degradation of MB solution at room temperature. For comparison, the TiO2 film is carried out under the same experimental conditions. As shown in Fig 4(a) inset one, the concentration of MB is decreased upon the irradiation time, and the TiO2 film can decompose 49% of MB after the UV irradiationfor 4 hours. However, the TiO 2-SiO 2-Ag nanostructural composite films obtained higherphotocatalytic efficiency than the pure TiO 2 film, and the S2 has the highest photocatalytic 140 efficiency than all other three samples, and degrade 72% MB. The enhancement ratio is as high as 47%. Meanwhile, the photodegradation of MB can be assumed to follow the classical Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) kinetics [30], and its kinetics can be expressed as follows:0ln()A kt A = Where k is the apparent first-order reaction rate constant (min -1), 0A and A represent the145 absorbance before and after irradiation for time t , respectively. As displayed in Fig. 4(a), S2 shows the highest rate constant among all the samples, the k values of the S2 is about 2 times than that of the pure TiO 2. The kinetic rate constants follow the order S2>S3>S1>S4>TiO 2. This is consistent with the Raman scattering enhancement result.The near field enhancement in the TiO 2 layer due to the presence of the Ag NPs is also 150 simulated by Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method as shown in Fig. 4(b). In our structure, we consider x as the light incident direction, the illuminating plane wave with a wavelength of 420 nm is y polarized, and an Ag NP with a diameter of 20 nm is embedded in SiO 2, and the distance to the surface of SiO 2 substrate is 7 nm. An amplitude enhancement to 3 can be observed. Theoretical and experimental results show that an enhancement of near field is induced 155by the SPR of Ag NPs. The SPR excitations cause a large increase in electromagnetic field in the vicinity of metal NPs, the localized amplification can increase the incident excitation field and boost the creation of hole-electron pairs, which results in the enhancement of the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2.160 Fig. 4 (a) The photodegradation of MB solution by S1-S4 and reference sample TiO 2 under UV light irradiation (inset one), and corresponding plots of 0ln()A Aversus the irradiation time, showing the linear fitting results; (b) amplitude enhancement of electric field inside a TiO 2 layer is simulated by FDTD method.3 Conclusion165 In conclusion, we have successfully demonstrated a plasmonic effect by simply incorporating Ag NPs with TiO 2 film. Optimum ion implantation conditions for Ag NPs synthesis in SiO 2 were experimentally estimated. The plasmonic effect occurring near interface of TiO 2 and silica glass has effectively enhanced the light trapping. Both the experimental data and the simulations show that the enhancement effect is attained from near field enhancement induced by the SPR of Ag 170 NPs. Our results have shown that the plasmonic effect has great potential in the application of increasing the UV light absorption in TiO 2 photocatalyst, and opening up opportunities for highly efficient ultra-thin film solar cells.References175[1] Wang D, Zou Y, Wen S and Fan D.

paper.Visible-Light Photocatalysis in Nitrogen-Doped TitaniumOxidesR.Asahi,*T.Morikawa,T.Ohwaki,K.Aoki,Y.TagaTo use solar irradiation or interior lighting efﬁciently,we sought a photocatalyst with high reactivity under visible light.Films and powders of TiO 2-x N x have revealed an improvement over titanium dioxide (TiO 2)under visible light (wavelength Ͻ500nanometers)in optical absorption and photocatalytic ac-tivity such as photodegradations of methylene blue and gaseous acetaldehyde and hydrophilicity of the ﬁlm surface.Nitrogen doped into substitutional sites of TiO 2has proven to be indispensable for band-gap narrowing and photocat-alytic activity,as assessed by ﬁrst-principles calculations and x-ray photo-emission spectroscopy.Since photoinduced decomposition of water on TiO 2electrodes was discovered (1),semicon-ductor-based photocatalysis has attracted exten-sive interest.One particular focus has been on applications in which organic molecules are photodegraded,such as water and air purifica-tions (2–4).Most of the investigations have focused on TiO 2(5–7),which shows relatively high reactivity and chemical stability under ul-traviolet (UV)light [wavelength (␭)Ͻ387nm],whose energy exceeds the band gap of 3.2eV in the anatase crystalline phase.The development of photocatalysts that can yield high reactivity under visible light (␭Ͼ380nm)should allow the main part of the solar spectrum,and even poor illumination of interior lighting,to be used.One approach has been to dope transition metals into TiO 2(8–10),and another has been to form reduced TiO x photo-catalysts (11,12).However,doped materials suffer from a thermal instability (9),an increase of carrier-recombination centers,or the require-ment of an expensive ion-implantation facility (10).Reducing TiO 2introduces localized oxy-gen vacancy states located at 0.75to 1.18eV below the conduction band minimum (CBM)of TiO 2(12),so that the energy levels of the optically excited electrons will be lower than the redox potential of the hydrogen evolution (H 2/H 2O)located just below the CBM of TiO 2(13)and that the electron mobility in the bulk region will be small because of the localization.We have considered whether visible-lightactivity could be introduced in TiO 2by doping,and we set the following requirements:(i)dop-ing should produce states in the band gap of TiO 2that absorb visible light;(ii)the CBM,including subsequent impurity states,should be as high as that of TiO 2or higher than the H 2/H 2O level to ensure its photoreduction ac-tivity;and (iii)the states in the gap should overlap sufficiently with the band states of TiO 2to transfer photoexcited carriers to reactive sites at the catalyst surface within their lifetime.Conditions ii and iii require that we use anionic species for the doping rather than cationic met-als,which often give quite localized d states deep in the band gap of TiO 2and result in recombination centers of carriers.We have cal-culated densities of states (DOSs)of the substi-tutional doping of C,N,F,P,or S for O in the anatase TiO 2crystal,by the full-potential lin-earized augmented plane wave (FLAPW)for-malism (14,15)in the framework of the local density approximation (LDA)(16)(Fig.1).The substitutional doping of N was the most effective because its p states contribute to the band-gap narrowing by mixing with O 2p states.Although doping with S shows a similar band-gap narrowing,it would be difficult to incorporate it into the TiO 2crystal because of its large ionic radius,as evidenced by a much larger formation energy required for the substi-tution of S than that required for the substitution of N (17).The states introduced by C and P are too deep in the gap to satisfy condition iii.The calculated imaginary parts of the dielectric functions of TiO 2-x N x indeed show a shift of the absorption edge to a lower energy by the N doping (Fig.2A)(18).Dominant transitions at the absorption edge have been identified withToyota Central R&D Laboratories,Nagakute,Aichi 480-1192,Japan.*To whom correspondence should be addressed.E-mail:rasahi@mosk.tytlabs.co.jpR E S E A R C H A R T I C L E S SCIENCE VOL

dem-onstrated tunable colorings in modified perov-skite oxinitrides,which suggested a similar band-gap control by N,although they did notaddress the detailed electronic states in these pigments (20).Photocatalysts for the present purpose,however,require more elaborate controls for doping besides the optical absorption;i.e.,conditions ii and iii.To this end,we have made a theoretical comparison among three systems:substitutional N doping,interstitial N doping,and both types of doping in the anatase TiO 2.In optimizing the positions of N in the eight TiO 2units per cell,we ob-served molecularly bonding states—NO and N 2—for the last two cases;the obtained bond lengths of N–O and N–N were 1.20and 1.16Å,respectively,which are compared with those of the NO molecule (1.15Å)and the N 2molecule (1.10Å).Such molecularly existing dopants give rise to the bonding states below the O 2p valence bands and antibonding states deep in the band gap (Fig.1B,N i and N i ϩs ).However,these states are well screened and hardly interact with the band states of TiO 2,and thus are unlikely to be effective for photocatalysis because of con-dition iii.The importance of substitutional site N doping is emphasized in the experi-mental results discussed below.We prepared TiO 2-x N x films by sputtering the TiO 2target in an N 2(40%)/Ar gas mixture.After being annealed at 550°C in N 2gas for 4hours,the films were crystalline,with features assignable to a mixed structure of the anatase and rutile crystalline phases,as determined by x-ray diffraction (XRD).The TiO 2-x N x films were yellowish and transparent.TiO 2films were prepared in a similar fashion by sputtering the TiO 2target in an O 2(20%)/Ar gas mixture and subsequently annealing it at 550°C in O 2gas for 4hours.XRD showed that the homo-geneous anatase crystalline phase was formed.Optical absorption spectra (Fig.2B)show that the TiO 2-x N x films noticeably absorb the light at less than 500nm,whereas the TiO 2films do not,which is in good agreement with the theo-retical results.Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by measuring decomposition rates of methylene blue as a function of the cutoff wavelength of the optical high-path filters under fluorescent light (Fig.3A).Substantial photocatalyticac-Fig.1.(A )Total DOSs of doped TiO 2and (B )the projected DOSs into the doped anion

interstitial site (N i -doped)and that at both substitutional and interstitial sites (N i ϩs -doped)are also shown.The energy is measured from the top of the valence bands of TiO 2,and the DOSs for

g D o w n l o a d e d f r o mtivity under 500nm has been observed in TiO 2-x N x films,and the cutoff wavelength for photocatalytic activity corresponds well with the optical absorption spectra (21,22).Both TiO 2-x N x and TiO 2films reveal similar activity under UV light [represented by the results un-der black light (BL)illumination].We also evaluated the photodecomposition of gaseous acetaldehyde of TiO 2-x N x powder samples that were prepared by treating anatase TiO 2powder (ST01,Ishihara Sangyo Kaisha,Osaka,Japan)in the NH 3(67%)/Ar atmosphere at 600°C for 3hours.The Brunaer-Emmett-Teller surface areas of the TiO 2-x N x and TiO 2powders were measured as 67and 270m 2/g,respectively.Figure 3B shows CO 2concentra-tions,evolved as a result of the photodecompo-sition of acetaldehyde,as a function of irradia-tion time.The photocatalytic activity of the TiO 2-x N x sample is superior to that of the TiO 2sample in the visible range of irradiation,whereas both samples yield similar UV activity.We used the photodegradation process of acet-aldehyde proposed in (23)to estimate quantum yields for the CO 2evolution,based on the number of incident photons being 0.42%(TiO 2-x N x )and 0.14%(TiO 2)at 436nm,and 3.0%(TiO 2-x N x )and 2.6%(TiO 2)at 351nm.Our final evaluation of the photocatalytic activity was to measure contact angles of water on the sample films under interior lighting.The so-called photoinduced hydrophilic surface is known as an important application of TiO 2(24,25).In this experiment,we used the TiO 2-x N x and TiO 2films,on which SiO 2with a nominal thickness of 5nm was deposited to hold ad-sorbed water (25).The results show an excel-lent hydrophilic surface of the SiO 2/TiO 2-x N x film,which maintained a contact angle of 6°even after 30days,in contrast to the SiO 2/TiO 2film,whose contact angle constantly increased with time (Fig.3C).As with usual TiO 2spec-imens,our TiO 2-x N x samples resisted the attack of acid and alkaline solvents such as H 2SO 4,HCl,H 2O 2,and NaOH at the ambient temper-ature,and their photocatalytic performance wasstable during successive use under 100-W mer-cury lamp irradiation for more than 3months.To investigate N states in TiO 2-x N x ,we measured N 1s core levels with x-ray photo-emission spectroscopy (XPS).Three peak structures at the binding energies of 402,400,and 396eV were observed for the TiO 2-x N x films (Fig.4A).We observed similar XPS spectra for the TiO 2-x N x powder samples.The TiO 2films also included a small amount of N;however,the peak at 396eV was not observed.Saha et al .(26)investigated the N 1s XPS spectra during the oxidation process of TiN and assigned the peaks as atomic ␤-N (396eV)and molecularly chemisorbed ␥-N 2(400and 402eV).To elucidate relations to photocatalytic activity systematically,we prepared TiO 2-x N x samples by annealing the TiO 2powder in the NH 3(67%)/Ar atmo-sphere at 550°to 600°C.The powder samples were used here,because the reaction temper-ature and the N concentration in the samples can be easily controlled by changing temper-ature and time of the NH 3treatment rather than by changing the sputtering conditions.Figure 4B shows the decomposition rates of methylene blue under visible light (␭Ͼ400nm)as a function of the ratio of the decom-posed area in the XPS peak at 396eV to the total area of N 1s .Each powder sample includ-ed the total N concentration of about 1atomic %.An increase of photocatalytic activity with an increase of the component of N with the XPS peak at 396eV is clearly observed.The decrease in photocatalytic activity observed in the powder sample (e)may be attributed to a change in the crystal structure of the sample caused by the high doping of N in the crystal,although we did not find a noticeable change in XRD.An optimum concentration of N with the XPS peak at 396eV,which may depend on the preparation process,was found at ϳ0.25atomic %(read from Fig.4B and the total concentra-tions of N in the samples)or TiO 1.9925N 0.0075.All these results,combined with the theoretical analyses described before (along with Fig.1),consistently show that the active sites of N for photocatalysis under visible light are the substi-tutional ones that can be identified with the atomic ␤-N states peaking at 396eV in the XPS spectra.The active wavelength of TiO 2-x N x ,of less than 500nm,promises a wide range of applications,as it covers the main peak of the solar irradiation energy beyond Earth’s atmo-sphere (around 460nm)and an excellent light source peaking at 390to 420nm,provided by recently developed light-emitting indium gal-lium nitride diodes (27).References and Notes1.A.Fujishima,K.Honda,Nature

光电催化反应的英文

光电催化反应的英文English:Photocatalytic reactions involve the use of light to activate a substance, typically a semiconductor material, to accelerate a chemical reaction. In these reactions, photons (light particles) are absorbed by the photocatalyst, generating electron-hole pairs which drive redox reactions on the catalyst surface. This process allows for the conversion of sunlight into chemical energy, making photocatalysis a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to drive various chemical processes. Some common applications of photocatalytic reactions include water splitting for hydrogen production, carbon dioxide reduction for fuel synthesis, and pollutant degradation for environmental remediation. Researchers continue to explore and optimize the efficiency of photocatalytic systems by developing novel materials, enhancing light absorption, and improving charge separation mechanisms. Overall, photocatalytic reactions represent a promising technology for green chemistry and renewable energy applications.中文翻译:光催化反应涉及利用光激活物质，通常是半导体材料，加速化学反应。

photocatalysts for light-induced chemical transformations due to their unique electronic struc-ture composed of a ﬁlled valence band (VB)and an empty conduction band (CB).When a photon with energy of hv matches or exceeds the band gap energy (E g )of the semi-conductor,an electron in the VB is excited into the CB,leaving a positive hole in the VB.The photogenerated holes and electrons play a very important role in pollutant degradation and photocatalytic disinfection,and solar energy conversion including hydrogen production and solar photovoltaics,respectively.However,the photogenerated electrons and holes in the excited states are unstable and can easily recombine,dissipating the input energy as heat,which results in low eﬃciency of photocatalysis.24–27During the past decade,a variety of strategies have been employed to improve the photocatalytic performance ofsemiconductor photocatalysts,for example,via suitable textural design,28–33doping,34–37noble metal loading 38–40and forming semiconductor composites.41,42In particular,numerous attempts have been made to combine graphene with semiconductor photocatalysts to enhance their photo-catalytic performance.19–21,43–48For example,Kamat and co-workers 19,20,49,50produced GO–TiO 2nanocrystalline com-posites by sonicating dispersed TiO 2nanoparticles and GO in ethanol and demonstrated the feasibility of using graphene as an electron-transfer medium in the graphene/TiO 2composite photocatalysts.This pioneering work has stimulated an extensive research on the preparation,modiﬁcation,and application of graphene-based semiconductor photocatalysts.Zhang et al.21reported graphene–P25TiO 2composites synthesized under hydrothermal conditions that exhibited an enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solutions.Ng et al.43demonstrated a great performance of the BiVO 4–GO composite photo-catalyst in the visible light range for water splitting.Since many important ﬁndings have been reported on the graphene-based semiconductor photocatalysts during the past few years,we believe that a comprehensive review on this subject is timely to promote further developments in this exciting area of research.This review is focused on the recent progress in the design,fabrication,modiﬁcation and applications of graphene-based semiconductor photocatalysts,and provides some invigorating perspectives on the future developments.2.Preparation2.1Synthesis of grapheneSince the ﬁrst report on graphene obtained by manual mechanical cleavage of graphite with a Scotch tape,1a wide range of techniques for the synthesis of this material have been reported.3In general,these techniques can be divided into ‘‘bottom-up’’and ‘‘top-down’’methods.In the bottom-up methods,graphene is synthesized from atoms or molecules via chemical reactions.Some typical examples are epitaxial growth on single-crystal SiC and chemical vapor deposition (CVD)on metal foil surfaces.5,6,51–53These resulting graphene ﬁlms can be easily transferred to polymer substrates by etching away the metal supports.However,these methods are not widely used because of their complexity,limited scaling-up and high cost of the precious metal substrates.To date,high-quality graphene with a well-deﬁned molecular structure was usually prepared by top-down methods such as chemical exfoliation of graphite,54,55thermal exfoliation 56and electrostatic deposition.57Especially,the most widely used technique is chemical reduction of GO as shown in Fig.1,which is usually conducted by Hummers’method.58According to this method,the reduced GO is prepared by exfoliating graphite oxide,obtained by oxidation of natural graphite powder with strong chemical oxidants,such as HNO 3,KMnO 4and H 2SO 4.The resulting GO product is usually puriﬁed by centrifugation,washing,and dialysis to remove some aggregates and various inorganic impurities such as residual ions and acids.More importantly,the exfoliated GO sheets usually possess a rich assortment of oxygen-containing groups,such as carboxylic,Mietek JaroniecMietek Jaroniec received his MS and PhD from M.Curie-Sklodowska Univer-sity,Poland,in 1972and 1976,respectively.Since 1991has been a Professor of Chemistry at Kent State University,Kent,Ohio (USA).Before joining Kent State he was a Professor of Chemistry at M.Curie-Sklodowska Univer-sity,Poland.His research interests revolve primarily around interdisciplinary topics of interfacial chemistry,chemical separations,andchemistry of materials,including physical adsorption at the gas/solid and liquid/solid interfaces,gas and liquid chromatography,adsorbents and catalysts.At Kent State he has established a vigorous research program in the area of ordered nanoporous materials such as ordered mesoporous silicas,organosilicas,inorganic oxides and carbons,focusing on their synthesis and environmental and energy-related applications.D o w n l o a d

:10.1039/C 1C S 15172Jhydroxyl,and epoxide functional groups.The presence of oxygen functionalities in GO allows interactions with the cations and provides reactive sites for the nucleation and growth of nanoparticles,which results in the rapid growth of various graphene-based composites.Moreover,the functional GO can be reduced to graphene with partial restoration of the sp 2-hybridized network by thermal,59chemical,60electrochemical,61photothermal,62photocatalytic,63sonochemical,64and micro-wave reduction methods.652.2Preparation of graphene-based semiconductor photocatalystsA variety of semiconductor photocatalysts have been used for the synthesis of graphene-based composites and/or functional GO.They mainly include metal oxides (e.g.TiO 2,18,21,66–74ZnO,48,75–80SnO 2,81–83Cu 2O,84Fe 2O 3,85NiO,86MnO 287and ZrO 288),salts (e.g.ZnS,89CdS,89–93CdSe,94Bi 2WO 6,95BiVO 4,43Sr 2Ta 2O 7,96ZnFe 2O 4,97InNbO 498and g -Bi 2MoO 699),metal-free polymers (e.g.graphitic carbon nitride 100,101)and silver/silver halides (Ag/AgCl,102,103and Ag/AgBr 103).The widely used preparation methods are in situ growth,solution mixing,hydrothermal and/or solvothermal method.The following paragraphs will give a more detailed description of the available synthesis routes.2.2.1In situ growth strategy.The direct growth strategy is widely used to prepare graphene based-metal compound composites.The most common precursors of graphene and metal compound are functional GO and metal salts,ually,the salt is mixed with GO and then converted to the corresponding oxide,forming a GO/metal compound com-posite.After reduction of GO,graphene based-metal compound composites were produced.For example,Sn 2+or Ti 3+ions were added into a functional GO dispersion solution and converted to SnO 2or TiO 2nanoparticles at low temperatures.In this process GO was reduced to graphene by SnCl 2or TiCl3.81The growth of SnO 2and TiO 2nanocrystals of diﬀerent morphologies on the reduced GO sheets was attributed to the diﬀerent reduction abilities and hydrolysis rates of Sn 2+and Ti 3+,respectively.A graphene–ZnOcomposite was synthesized analogously.Zn 2+ions were adsorbed on graphene oxide sheets and converted into ZnO nanoparticles with the addition of NaOH and NaBH 4under drying in air at 1501C.48After reduction of graphene oxide,a graphene/ZnO composite photocatalyst was produced.In this composite,the size of ZnO nanoparticles formed on graphene sheets was in the range of 10–20nm with a narrow particle size mbert et al.104also reported the in situ synthesis of composites comprised of ﬂower-like anatase TiO 2–graphene oxide by the hydrolysis of TiF 4in the presence of aqueous dispersions of GO.In this case,when the concentration of graphene oxide was suﬃciently high and stirring was oﬀ,a long-range ordered assemblies of TiO 2-GO sheets were obtained.Li et al.105developed a direct growth of uniform mesoporous anatase TiO 2nanospheres on graphene sheets by a template-free self-assembly process (see Fig.2).They used titanium sulfate and functional graphene sheets as the starting materials.The epoxy and hydroxyl functional groups on graphene sheets acted as heterogeneous nucleation sites by anchoring anatase nanoparticles,which resulted in the formation of well-dispersed mesoporous anatase TiO 2nanospheres on the graphene sheets.Interestingly,the oriented attachment of some very small primary TiO 2nanoparticles facilitated the formation of a single-crystal-like microstructure within a single nanosphere during the assembly process of these nano-spheres on graphene sheets.Further extensions of the direct growth strategy were used to prepare a variety of graphene based-composites.For example,Wang et al.106used anionic sulfate surfactants to assist the stabilization of graphene in aqueous solutions and to facilitate the self-assembly of in situ grown nanocrystalline TiO 2,rutile and anatase,with graphene.Park and co-authors 107prepared TiO 2nanoparticles coated with graphite oxide layers by the spontaneous exfoliation and reorganization of graphite oxides in aqueous slurry without using any chemical reagents under ambient conditions.Du et al.108also prepared the hierarchically ordered macro-mesoporous TiO 2–graphene composite ﬁlm.They used a conﬁnement self-assembly method to produce the hierarchicallyFig.1Preparation of graphene by

well-interconnected periodic macropores.Then,graphene was incorporated into the resulting titania framework by in situ reduction of graphene oxide added into the self-assembled system (see Fig.3).The in situ growth strategy can avoid the agglomeration of the semiconductor nanoparticles on the graphene sheets.Zhu et al.109reported a one-pot method for water-phase synthesis of high-quality graphene/TiO 2composite nanosheets using TiCl 3as a reducing agent and the titania precursor.Similarly,a graphene/CdS composite was also prepared by a one-step method using GO and Cd(CH 3COO)2Á2H 2O in DMSO.90During this one-step reaction,H 2S released from DMSO acted as both the reducing agent of GO and the sulﬁde source.Thus,the reduction of GO and the deposition of CdS on the graphene sheets occurred simultaneously,resulting in a uniform and tight distribution of CdS nanoparticles on graphene sheets.The size of the CdS nanoparticles in the composite was around 10nm (see Fig.4).Chen et al.110reported the fabrication of graphene sheets-wrapped anatase TiO 2hollow particles.The electroactive egg-like TiO 2hollow particles were ﬁrst synthesized,and then these particles were functionalized with aminopropyltrieth-oxysilane to obtain a positively-charged surface.Next,the negatively charged GO sheets were linked to these functionalized TiO 2hollow particles via simple electrostatic interaction.Finally,the GO sheets were reduced to graphene sheets by thermal treatment under an inert atmosphere,leading to the formation of graphene–TiO 2composites.2.2.2Solution mixing method.Solution mixing has been widely used to fabricate graphene/semiconductor composite photocatalysts.For example,TiO 2particles and GO colloidshave been mixed ultrasonically,followed by ultraviolet (UV)-assisted photocatalytic reduction of GO to yield TiO 2/graphene composites.111Akhavan and Ghaderi 112used a similar strategy to prepare the TiO 2/graphene composite thin ﬁlm.Paek et al.113synthesized the SnO 2sol by hydrolysis of SnCl 4with NaOH,and then the prepared graphene dispersion was mixed with the sol in ethylene glycol to form the SnO 2/graphene composite.Mukherji et al.96prepared nitrogen doped Sr 2Ta 2O 7coupled with graphene sheets by mixing the graphene oxide dispersion and Sr 2Ta 2O 7Àx N x ,followed by reduction of graphene oxide to graphene under xenon lamp irradiation.Zhu et al.103used the water/oil system to produce GO enwrapped Ag/AgX (X =Br,Cl)composites.They added aqueous solutions of GO and AgNO 3to chloroform solution of CTAB or CTAC under magnetic stirring at room temperature to produce Ag/AgX/GO hybrid composites (Fig.5).Considering graphene’s large network of sp 2hybridized carbon,this material can tend to form strong p –p bonds with other graphite-like materials.Sun et al.100synthesized a composite polymeric photocatalyst graphene/graphitic carbon nitride by a combined solution mixing–chemical reduction strategy.Graphitic carbon nitride was deposited on the surface of GO sheets to form a layered composite by polymerizing melamine molecules adsorbed on GO due to the p –p inter-action of aromatic structures between graphene oxide and graphitic carbon nitride.Similarly,Geng et al.94mixed graphene oxide sheets and the CdSe nanoparticles modiﬁed with pyridine to produce graphene–CdSe quantum dots composites.They thought that pyridine ligands could provide p –p interactions for the assembly of CdSe nanoparticles capped with pyridine on GO sheets.2.2.3Hydrothermal/solvothermal method.The hydro-thermal/solvothermal process,one of the traditional methods for crystal growth of semiconductors,is another eﬀective method for the preparation of semiconductor composites with graphene.In this process,semiconductor nanoparticles or their precursors are loaded on the graphene oxide sheets,which are reduced to graphene.For example,Fu and Wang 97synthesized the ZnFe 2O 4–graphene composite photocatalyst with diﬀerent graphene contents by a one-step hydrothermal method in ethanol-aqueous solution.They used Zn(NO 3)2Á6H 2O and Fe(NO 3)3Á9H 2O as precursors of ZnFe 2O 4,and GO as a source of graphene sheets.During the hydrothermalFig.3(a)Schematic illustration of the preparation of the ordered macro-mesoporous TiO 2–graphene composite ﬁlm by in situ reduction of graphene oxide added into the

S 15172Jreaction process,GO was reduced to graphene,and simulta-neously ZnFe 2O 4nanoparticles were formed on the graphene sheets (as shown in Fig.6).A graphene–Bi 2WO 6composite photocatalyst was also prepared by in situ hydrothermal reaction in the presence of GO.95Furthermore,some solvothermal experiments can result in the semiconductor nanoparticles of special morphology on graphene sheets.For example,Ding et al.114synthesized graphene-supportedultrathin anatase TiO 2nanosheets with exposed (001)high-energy facets by a simple solvothermal method.In this process,anatase TiO 2nanosheets directly grew onto the graphene oxide support during the solvothermal growth of TiO 2nanocrystals,and then GO was reduced to graphene via a thermal treatment under N 2/H 2,giving rise to the unique hybrid structure of the graphene–TiO 2composite.By using a diﬀerent titanium source,Zhang et al.21synthesized the graphene–TiO 2nanocomposite photocatalyst by hydrothermal treatment of graphene oxide sheets and Degussa P25TiO 2powder in an ethanol–water solvent.In order to get a uniform mixture of graphene and the semiconductor photocatalyst,Wang et al.115used a one-step solvothermal method to produce graphene–TiO 2nanocomposites with well-dispersed particles by controlling the hydrolysis rate of titanium isopropoxide.Very recently,Shen et al.116found an environmentally friendly route for the preparation of graphene–TiO 2nanocomposites with a one-step hydrothermal method using glucose as the reducing agent.They claimed that this process is simple,scalable,and feasible because it utilizes only water and glucose.2.2.4Other methods.A nonaqueous atomic layer deposition (ALD)approach has been used to fabricate metal oxide–graphene hybrid nanocomposites.For example,Meng et al.83reported for the ﬁrst time the preparation of the SnO 2–graphene nanocomposite using SnCl 4and H 2O as the ALD precursors.The SnO 2nano-particles/ﬁlms as well as amorphous/crystalline phases were obtained by adjusting the growth temperature.Moreover,Du et al.88developed an electrochemical deposition method to prepare the graphene–ZrO 2composite on a glass carbon electrode.3.Photocatalytic applicationsIn recent years,semiconductor-mediated photocatalysis has attracted worldwide attention for its potential in environmental and energy-related applications.24,35,117–121However,the rapid recombination rate of photogenerated electron–hole pairs within photocatalytic materials results in its low eﬃciency,thus limiting its practical applications.Therefore,the suppression of recombination of charge carriers is the key for the enhancement of photocatalytic activity of semiconductor photocatalysts.Besides the conventional doping and adding co-sorbents,122carbon–semiconductor hybrid materials became a new class of photocatalysts,which recently has attracted a lot of attention.123–127Composites that combine carbon and semi-conductor photocatalysts could potentially oﬀer desirable eﬃciency for separating electron–hole pairs.In this regard,graphene has been examined in combination with a semi-conductor photocatalyst,which resulted in improved photo-catalytic activity as shown in Table 1.As can be seen from this table the graphene-based semiconductor photocatalysts have been widely used for the degradation of pollutants,photo-catalytic hydrogen generation and photocatalytic disinfection,etc.In this section the main applications of graphene-based semiconductor photocatalysts are brieﬂy summarized.3.1Photocatalytic degradation of pollutantsIn recent years,a great deal of eﬀort has been devoted to solving the widespread pollution of eﬄuents from urban andFig.5Typical SEM images of

photocatalysis英文解释

photocatalysis英文解释Title: An Explanation of Photocatalysis in EnglishIntroduction:Photocatalysis is a chemical process that utilizes light energy to initiate a catalytic reaction.It has gained significant attention in various fields, including environmental purification, energy conversion, and material synthesis.In this document, we will delve into the concept of photocatalysis, its mechanism, and its applications.Explanation:Photocatalysis is a two-step process that involves the absorption of light by a catalyst, followed by the generation of reactive species that facilitate chemical reactions.The key components of photocatalysis include:1.Catalyst: A substance that accelerates a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process.In photocatalysis, the catalyst is typicallya semiconductor material that can absorb light energy.2.Light Absorption: When light energy is absorbed by the semiconductor catalyst, electrons within the material are excited to a higher energy state.This results in the formation of electron-hole pairs.3.Charge Separation: The excited electrons and holes migrate to the surface of the catalyst, where they can participate in chemicalreactions.The separated charges are highly reactive and can interact with water, oxygen, or other molecules present in the system.4.Reactive Species Formation: The electrons and holes can react with water and oxygen to produce reactive species such as hydroxyl radicals (·OH) and superoxide anions (O2·-).These species have strong oxidative capabilities and can degrade organic pollutants, kill bacteria, or facilitate other chemical transformations.Applications of Photocatalysis:1.Environmental Purification: Photocatalysis is widely used for the degradation of harmful organic pollutants in water and air.It can break down persistent contaminants into harmless substances, thereby improving environmental quality.2.Self-Cleaning Surfaces: By applying a photocatalytic coating to surfaces, self-cleaning properties can be achieved.When exposed to light, the coating generates reactive species that decompose dirt, grime, and organic contaminants, keeping the surface clean.3.Antimicrobial Activity: Photocatalysis can be employed to kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms on surfaces.This is particularly useful in healthcare settings, where sterilization is crucial.4.Energy Conversion: Photocatalysis plays a vital role in splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen, a process known as watersplitting.This reaction is of great interest for renewable energy production, as hydrogen is a clean and efficient energy carrier.5.Material Synthesis: Photocatalysis is used in the synthesis of various materials, including nanoparticles, nanowires, and graphene.It offers precise control over the size, shape, and composition of the synthesized materials.In conclusion, photocatalysis is a powerful technique that harnesses light energy to drive chemical reactions.Its versatility and environmental friendliness make it an important area of research and application in numerous scientific and technological fields.。

光异构反应释放氧离子

光异构反应释放氧离子英文回答：Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a process that involves the use of a photocatalyst to initiate a chemical reaction under light irradiation. This process is widely used in various applications, including environmental remediation, energy conversion, and organic synthesis. One of the key features of heterogeneous photocatalysis is the release of oxygen ions during the reaction.The release of oxygen ions in heterogeneous photocatalysis is primarily attributed to the oxidation of water molecules. In the presence of a suitable photocatalyst, such as titanium dioxide (TiO2), water molecules can be split into oxygen ions (O2-) and hydrogen ions (H+). This process is known as water oxidation and is a crucial step in the overall reaction.To illustrate this process, let's consider thephotocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in water using TiO2 as the photocatalyst. When TiO2 is exposed to light, it absorbs photons and generates electron-hole pairs. The photogenerated holes (h+) on the surface of TiO2 can react with water molecules, leading to the formation of hydroxyl radicals (OH•) and oxygen ions (O2-):TiO2 + h+ + H2O → TiO2 + OH• + O2-。

光催化co2反应器

光催化co2反应器英文回答：The topic I would like to discuss is the photocatalytic CO2 reactor. This type of reactor utilizes light energy to drive the chemical reaction that converts carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful products. It has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential for mitigating climate change and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.One of the key components of a photocatalytic CO2 reactor is the photocatalyst. This is a material that can absorb light energy and use it to initiate the CO2 conversion reaction. Common photocatalysts used in these reactors include titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO). These materials have the ability to generate electron-hole pairs when exposed to light, which can then participate in the CO2 reduction reaction.In addition to the photocatalyst, the reactor also requires a light source to provide the necessary energy for the photocatalytic reaction. This can be natural sunlightor artificial light sources such as LEDs. The choice oflight source depends on factors such as the desiredreaction rate and the availability of sunlight.The design of the reactor is another important aspectto consider. It should provide efficient light absorptionby the photocatalyst and ensure good contact between theCO2 and the photocatalyst surface. This can be achieved through various configurations such as slurry reactors,fixed-bed reactors, and fluidized-bed reactors.The photocatalytic CO2 reactor offers several advantages over traditional CO2 conversion methods. Firstly, it is a sustainable and environmentally friendly process as it utilizes renewable energy sources such as sunlight. Secondly, it can convert CO2 into valuable products such as fuels or chemicals, thereby reducing the dependence onfossil fuels. Finally, it has the potential to capture and utilize CO2 emissions from industrial processes, helping tomitigate climate change.To illustrate the concept further, let's consider an example. Imagine a large-scale photocatalytic CO2 reactor installed near a power plant. The reactor is equipped witha titanium dioxide photocatalyst and uses sunlight as the light source. As the sunlight hits the photocatalyst, it generates electron-hole pairs that react with CO2, converting it into a useful fuel such as methane. This fuel can then be used to generate electricity, creating aclosed-loop system that reduces CO2 emissions from thepower plant.中文回答：我想讨论的话题是光催化CO2反应器。

光合作用对于生态系统的意义英语作文

The Significance of Photosynthesis in Ecosystems Photosynthesis is a fundamental process that takes place in the cells of plants, algae, and some bacteria, enabling them to convert sunlight into energy-rich organic compounds. This process has significant implications for ecosystems and plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of life on Earth.One of the primary significance of photosynthesis in ecosystems is the production of oxygen. During photosynthesis, plants utilize sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This oxygen is released into the atmosphere, supporting the respiration of many organisms, including humans. Without photosynthesis, the production of oxygen would significantly decrease, leading to a decline in the overall health of ecosystems.Furthermore, photosynthesis is the base of the food chain in most ecosystems. Autotrophic organisms, such as plants and algae, are capable of photosynthesis and serve as the primary producers in ecosystems. They form the foundation of the food chain by converting sunlight into energy-rich organic compounds that are essential for the growth and development of other organisms. Heterotrophs, including animals and some microorganisms, depend on these primary producers for their energy needs, highlighting the critical role of photosynthesis in sustaining the trophic structure of ecosystems.In addition to oxygen production and energy transfer, photosynthesis also plays a vital role in the global carbon cycle. By converting carbon dioxide into organic compounds, plants sequester carbon from the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. This process not only regulates the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere but also provides the necessary building blocks for the growth and development of living organisms.Moreover, photosynthesis contributes to the overall biodiversity of ecosystems. Plants that undergo photosynthesis provide habitats and food sources for a wide variety of organisms, contributing to the rich diversity of life forms on Earth. The ability of plants to harness sunlight and convert it into usable energy has allowed for the development of complex and diverse ecosystems that are essential for supporting life in all its forms.Given the significance of photosynthesis in ecosystems, it is essential to recognize the critical role that this process plays in maintaining the balance and sustainability of life on Earth. By understanding the importance of photosynthesis, we can appreciate the interconnectedness of all living organisms and work towards preserving and protecting the natural environments that support the intricate web of life on our planet.。

光敏化学作用英文

光敏化学作用英文英文回答：Photochemical Action.Photochemical action refers to the chemical reactions that are initiated or accelerated by light. These reactions involve the absorption of light energy by a molecule, which then undergoes a chemical transformation. Photochemical reactions are important in a wide variety of natural and industrial processes, including photosynthesis, vision, and the production of vitamin D.The basic principles of photochemical action are relatively simple. When a molecule absorbs light, its electrons are excited to a higher energy level. This excited state is unstable, and the molecule will quickly return to its ground state by emitting a photon of light or by undergoing a chemical reaction. The type of chemical reaction that occurs will depend on the specific moleculeand the wavelength of light that is absorbed.Photochemical reactions can be classified into two main types: unimolecular and bimolecular. Unimolecular reactions involve the absorption of light by a single molecule, which then undergoes a chemical transformation. Bimolecular reactions involve the absorption of light by two molecules, which then react with each other.Photochemical reactions are used in a wide variety of applications. In photosynthesis, light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In vision, light energy is used to activate rhodopsin, a protein that triggers the electrical signals that are sent to the brain. In the production of vitamin D, light energy is used to convert 7-dehydrocholesterol into vitamin D3.Photochemical reactions are also used in a variety of industrial processes. For example, photochemical reactions are used to produce plastics, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. Photochemical reactions are also used in the purification of water and air.中文回答：光敏化学作用。

Nitrogen-Concentration Dependence on Photocatalytic Activity of TiO 2-x N x PowdersHiroshi Irie,Yuka Watanabe,and Kazuhito Hashimoto*Research Center for Ad V anced Science and Technology,The Uni V ersity of Tokyo,4-6-1Komaba,Meguro-ku,Tokyo 153-8904,Japan Recei V ed:January 31,2003Theof theTiO 2-with low nitrogen concentrations (<0.02)was evaluated by the of gaseous (IPA)under the same absorbed photon number,1.4×1014quanta ‚cm of visible (Vis)(UV)light.Regardless of the x value,the quantum yield values from irradiating with Vis light was lower than with UV light,which suggests that the isolated narrow band formed above the valence band is responsible for the Vis light response in the present nitrogen doped TiO 2.In addition,increasing the nitrogen concentration when irradiating with UV light lowered the quantum yields,indicating that the doping sites could also serve as sites.1.IntroductionTitanium dioxide (TiO 2)is an efficient photocatalyst 1-3but is activated only by irradiating with ultraviolet (UV)light.A current area of research in this field is to modify TiO 2so that it is sensitive to visible (Vis)light.One approach is to substitute Cr,Fe,or Ni,etc.,for a Ti site.4-6Anpo et al .5,6substituted Cr 3+or V 3+(V 4+)at lattice positions of Ti 4+in TiO 2by a metal ion-implantation method.They showed that the absorption band of the Cr 3+-doped TiO 2shifted to the visible light region and that irradiating with Vis light (wavelength >450nm)photo-catalytically decomposed NO into N 2,O 2,and N 2O.Another approach is to form Ti 3+sites by introducing an oxygen vacancy in TiO 2.7,8Ando et al .8reported the “oxygen vacancy-typed visible light sensitive TiO 2”anatase TiO 2was fabricated and treated under a plasma (H 2plasma).In 1986,Sato 9reported that the of NH 4Cl or NH 4-OH involving titanium hydroxide caused the photocatalytic sensitization of TiO 2into the Vis light region.He concluded that powders were NO x -doped TiO 2and that the of these TiO 2powders was due to the NO x Similarly,Noda et al .10prepared yellow-colored anatase TiO 2powders from a (NH 2)2‚H 2O and TiCl 4solution and concluded that the Vis light absorption was due to the oxygen vacancies.Recently,several groups reported Vis light sensitive TiO 2-based powders and thin films.11-14Sakatani et al.11prepared nitrogen-doped TiO 2powders by a hydrolytic process,using a TiCl 3solution and an ammonia solution,and reported that irradiating with Vis light in the presence of the powdered photocatalyst caused the photocatalytic decomposition of acetaldehyde to CO 2.They concluded that the nitrogen atoms (or ions)were doped at the interstitial sites and that these interstitial nitrogens were responsible for the Vis light response.Ihara et al .12also prepared a Vis light sensitive TiO 2photo-catalyst by a hydrolytic process,using a Ti(SO 4)2solution and an ammonia solution.They found that irradiating with Vis light in the presence of the prepared powder caused the photocatalytic decomposition of 2-propanol to CO 2and asserted that the oxygen vacancies were responsible for the Vis light response.Sakatani et al.and Ihara et al.insisted on a different conclusion for Vis light response,although they reported similar fabrication methods for Vis light sensitive TiO 2-based photocatalysts.Asahi et al.13,14theoretically calculated the band structure of the nitrogen-doped TiO 2and its Vis light induced photocatalysis for powders and thin films.Asahi insisted that the oxygen sites were substituted by nitrogen atoms and that these nitrogens were responsible for the Vis light sensitivity.In addition,Asahi concluded that the Vis light sensitivity of the nitrogen-doped TiO 2was due to the narrowing of the band gap by mixing the N 2p and O 2p states.We have previously reported 15that nitrogen-doped TiO 2powders irradiated with Vis light photo-catalytically decomposed CH 3CHO and 2-propanol into CO 2with different product distributions than irradiating with UV light.These experimental results suggested that the isolated N 2p narrow band that forms above the O 2p valence band was responsible for the visible light response and in the nitrogen-doped TiO 2the oxygen sites were substituted by nitrogen.In the present paper,the band structure of the TiO 2-x N x with small values of x (<0.02)was experimentally investigated by comparing the quantum efficiency of decomposing gaseous 2-propanol (IPA)under the same absorbed photon number of Vis or UV light.2.Experimental SectionTiO 2-x N x powders were prepared by annealing anatase TiO 2powder (ST01,Ishihara Sangyo Kaisha Ltd.)under NH 3flow at 550,575,and 600°C for 3h.TiO 2powder (ST01)was also annealed under an airflow at 550°C for 3h as a reference sample.An X-ray diffractometer (XRD),X-ray photoemission spec-troscopy (XPS),and UV -Vis light absorbance spectroscopy using the diffuse reflection method characterized the samples.The N 1s and O 1s core levels on the surface were measured by XPS in order to investigate the initial states of the NH 3and air annealed powders.According to Saha et al.,16the peak at 396eV is derived from Ti -N bonds.Therefore,the x values (nitrogen concentrations)were estimated by comparing the product of the 396eV peak area multiplied by the nitrogen sensitive factor to the product of the 531eV peak area (O 1s,Ti -O bonds)multiplied by the oxygen sensitive factor.*To whom correspondence should be addressed.Telephone:+81-3-5452-5080.Fax:+81-3-5452-5083.E-mail:kazuhito@fchem.chem.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp.5483J.Phys.Chem.B

irradiating with Vis(400-530nm)or UV(300-400nm)light.The Vis and UV lights were obtained by a Xe lamp(Hayashi Tokei,Luminar Ace210) with glass filters(Toshiba Glass,B-47,L-42and C-40C)and by a black fluorescent light bulb(Toshiba Lighting&Technol-ogy)with a glass filter(Toshiba Glass,UV-D36B),respectively. Except when TiO2was irradiated with Vis light,the Vis or UV light intensity was calibrated for all the other sample powders to absorb1.4×1014quanta‚cm-2‚s-1,as shown in Table1. The irradiation area was approximately4.9cm2.A300mg sample of either TiO2-x N x or TiO2powders was uniformly spread over the irradiation area in a quartz-made vessel,which had a volume of500mL.About300ppm of the reactant gaswas injected.The samples were kept in the dark once the gas concentration remained constant,which implied that the IPA gas finished absorbing onto the powder surface.The component gas concentrations were measured using a gas chromatograph (Shimadzu model GC-8A).3.Results3.1.Sample Characterization.The powders annealed under NH3flow at550,575,and600°C were pale yellow,yellow, and dark green,respectively.The XRD patterns indicated that all the powders were a homogeneous anatase(TiO2)phase because only the peaks from the anatase phase and not TiN were observed.The powder annealed under airflow was white and identified as the homogeneous anatase phase.Figure1shows the N1s XPS spectra of TiO2-x N x and TiO2 powders.Since peaks at396eV,which have previously been found to result from Ti-N bonds,16are observed for the powders annealed under NH3,it was determined that the oxygen sites were substituted by nitrogen atoms.Since the XRD did not indicate the formation of TiN bonds,it was determined that O-Ti-N bonds formed.15Therefore,these powders were described as TiO2-x N x.In contrast,the air annealed samples did not display a peak at396eV and is TiO2.The peak around 400eV is the chemisorbed N2molecules,which absorbs onto the surface.16-19The estimated x values are listed in Table2. Figure2a shows the optical absorbance spectra obtained by the diffuse reflection of the TiO2-x N x and TiO2.Noticeable shifts of the absorption shoulders into the Vis light region were observed for TiO2-x N x.For x)0.019,the increase in absor-bance at wavelengths greater than550nm corresponds to Ti3+10 since NH3decomposes into N2and H2at around550°C20and H2is a reducing gas.TiO2is an indirect

equivalent,1.4×1014quanta ‚cm -2‚s -1,for all the samples.The calculated CO 2generation rate was determined to be 1.9×10-10mol ‚s -1.The initial CO 2generation rate was calculated using the conventional least-squares method and the data in Figure 4.When irradiating with either Vis or UV light,the QY values decreased as x increased.The reason will be discussed later.4.DiscussionIrradiating TiO 2-x N x with UV light resulted in a higher QY value than irradiating with Vis light.This trend is plausible because the TiO 2oxygen lattice sites substituted by nitrogen atoms form an isolated narrow band above the valence band.Irradiating with UV light excites electrons in both the valence band and the narrow band,but irradiating with Vis light only excites electrons in the narrow band.If substituting nitrogenfor the oxygen sites in TiO 2narrows the band gap,then the QY values would be the same whether irradiating with Vis or UV light.The observations and Figure 2b do not support the narrowing of the band gap but are consistent with an isolated narrow band above the valence band,which produces the Vis light sensitive photocatalyst.Asahi et al .13calculated the band structure of TiO 2-x N x ,where x )0.25and 0.12,i.e.,when 12.5and 6at.%of the oxygen sites were substituted by nitrogen,and reported that mixing the N 2p and O 2p states narrowed the band gap.In our studies the x value in the TiO 2-x N x powders was much lower and at most was 0.02(1at.%).It is plausible that the band structure of the TiO 2-x N x with lower values of x (<0.02)should differ from higher x values (>0.12).The QY values of the TiO 2-x N x (x )0.0050,0.011,0.019)powders when irradiating with Vis light decreased as the x values increased.When annealing TiO 2powder under an NH 3atmosphere,the oxygen sites were partially replaced with nitrogen atoms while TiO 2was simultaneously reduced.20These changes caused an increase in oxygen vacancy and the amount of Ti 3+.The oxygen vacancy state in anatase TiO 2is below the lower end of the conduction band at 0.75-1.18eV 7and acts as a recombination center for holes and electrons.25As the NH 3annealing temperature was increased (with increasing x values),the more TiO 2reduction was reduced and the greater the number of oxygen vacancies,which explains why the QY values were lower as x increased.In fact,TiO 1.981N 0.019powders had an absorbance greater than 550nm,which corresponds to Ti 3+10(Figure 2a).The same trend was also observed when TiO 2-x N x (x )0.0050,0.011,0.019)powders were irradiated with UV light because the oxygen vacancies acted as recombination centers for holes and electrons.5.ConclusionTiO 2-x N x (x )0,0.0050,0.011,0.019)powders were prepared by annealing under an NH 3flow at 550,575,and 600°C.XRD and XPS confirmed that the prepared powders had nitrogen substituted at some of the oxygen sites in TiO 2,which formed a narrow N 2p band above the valence band.It was determined that the narrow N 2p band was responsible for the visible light sensitivity by considering the QY values,which were calculated by the CO 2generation rate by decomposing IPA in Vis or UV light at a constant photon number (1.4×1014quanta ‚cm -2‚s -1).When irradiating with Vis light,the QY values decreased as x increased.This is because the oxygen vacancies,which promote the recombination of holes and electrons,increased with x .When irradiating with UV light,the QY values decreased as the nitrogen concentration increased,indicating that the doping sites could serve as recombination centers,too.Acknowledgment.This work was supported by a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Priority Areas (Grant 417)from the Ministry of Education,Culture,Sports,Science and
