Title: | Fabrication of Bi-doped TiO₂ spheres with ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and investigation of their visible-light photocatalytic properties | Authors: | Huang, J Cheuk, W Wu, Y Lee, SC Ho, W |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | Journal of nanomaterials, v. 2012, 214783, p. 1-7 | Abstract: | Bismuth-doped TiO₂submicrospheres were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The prepared bismuth-doped titania was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Aqueous photocatalytic activity was evaluated by the decomposition of methyl orange under visible-light irradiation. The results indicate that doping of bismuth remarkably affects the phase composition, crystal structure, and the photocatalytic activity. The sample with 2 Bi exhibits the optimum photocatalytic activity. | Keywords: | Azo dyes Bismuth Photoelectrons Scanning electron microscopy Spray pyrolysis Titanium dioxide Transmission electron microscopy X ray diffraction X ray photoelectron spectroscopy |
