Synthesis, Characterization, Electronic Structure, and Photocatalytic Activity of Nitrogen-Doped TiO2 Nanocatalyst

Nitrogen-doped TiO2 (N−TiO2) nanocatalyst with spherical shape and homogeneous size has been synthesized through a chemical method using TiCl3 as precursor. The light absorption onset shifts from 380 nm on pure TiO2 to the visible region at 550 nm with N−TiO2. A clear decrease in the band gap and th... View More
