Visible light-induced photocatalysis is a promising way for environmental remediation due to
efficient utilization of solar energy. Recently, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have …

The field of photocatalysis can be traced back more than 80 years to early observations of
the chalking of titania-based paints and to studies of the darkening of metal oxides in contact …

The field of surface science provides a unique approach to understanding bulk, surface and
interfacial phenomena occurring during TiO 2 photocatalysis. This review highlights, from a …

The photoactivation of TiO2 has received enormous attention from scientists and engineers
in the past decade. This interest has been generated because of the confluence of several …

Defects at transition metal (TM) and rare earth (RE) oxide surfaces, neutral oxygen
vacancies in particular, play a major role in a variety of technological applications. This is the …

Solar energy is potentially the most promising type of renewable energy for large-scale
utilization in the future, thus maximizing the use of solar energy has long been long pursued …

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has a number of uses in catalysis, photochemistry, and sensing that
are linked to the reducibility of the oxide. Usually, bridging oxygen (Obr) vacancies are …

We report a facile one-step chemical method to synthesize partially reduced TiO2 nanotube
arrays (NTAs). The NaBH4 treatment introduces oxygen vacancies on the surface and …

Nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide (N-TiO2), a photocatalytic material active in visible light,
has been investigated by a combined experimental and theoretical approach. The material …

Particle size is generally considered to be the primary factor in the design of nanocrystal
photocatalysts, because the reduction of particle size increases the number of active sites …
