The effect of the TiO2 film on the performance of the optical fiber SPR sensor
摘要: We studied the effect of the Titanium Oxide (TiO2) film on the performance of the optical fiber SPR with two kinds of probes. The light guiding properties and sensing performance of the D-type optical fiber SPR sensor coated with TiO2 was studied numerically by finite element method (FEM) and the sensing performance of the multimode-single mode-multimode (MSM) hetero-core optical fiber SPR sensor coated with TiO2 was investigated experimentally. The simulation and experimental results for two kinds of probes consistently show that the absence of TiO2 film layer on the gold film can enhance the refractive index sensitivity and tune the resonance curve of the sensor from visible light to near-infrared.

Multifunctional and Recyclable TiO2 Hybrid Sponges for Efficient Sorption, Detection, and Photocatalytic Decomposition of Organic Pollutants
摘要: Developing techniques for monitoring and removing organic pollutants such as solvents and dyes in environmental media is a very important task nowadays. To get rid of the pollutants, efficient materials that can sorb, detect, and decompose such compounds have been consistently sought after. Herein, we demonstrate a simple and inexpensive method to fabricate eco-friendly multifunctional and recyclable TiO2 hybrid sponges composed of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) network and functional nanoparticles. Water-soluble crystals were used to construct porous templates and TiO2 nanoparticles were additionally integrated into the templates where liquid PDMS was filled. After curing the PDMS, the TiO2 integrated hybrid sponges were finally obtained by dissolving the templates with water. By using the fabricated hybrid sponges, sorbed organic pollutants were qualitatively detected via molecular-specific Raman signals. Furthermore, we showed the recyclability by achieving photocatalytic decomposition of the sorbed pollutants induced by the TiO2 nanoparticles. These results are instructive for further applications and also contribute toward solving problems relating to environmental pollution.

Morphology Phase Diagram of Slot‐Die Printed TiO <sub/>2</sub> Films Based on Sol–Gel Synthesis
摘要: Mesoporous titania films with tailored nanostructures are fabricated via slot-die printing, which is a simple and cost-effective thin-film deposition technique with the possibility of a large-scale manufacturing. Based on this technique, which is favorable in industry, TiO2 films possess the similar advantage with polymer semiconducting devices like ease of large-scale production. The titania morphologies, including foam-like nanostructures, nanowire aggregates, collapsed vesicles and nanogranules, are achieved via a so-called block-copolymer-assisted sol–gel synthesis. By adjusting the weight fraction of reactants, the ternary morphology phase diagram of the printed titania films is probed after template removal. The surface and inner morphology evolutions are explored with scanning electron microscopy and grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering, respectively. Special focus is set on foam-like titania nanostructures as they are of especial interest for, e.g., solar cell applications. At a low weight fraction of the titania precursor titanium(IV)isopropoxide (TTIP), foam-like titania films are achieved, which exhibit a high uniformity and possess large pore sizes. The anatase phase of the highly crystalline titania films is verified with X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy.

Powder Quartz/Nano-TiO2 Composite: Mechanochemical Preparation and Photocatalytic Degradation of Formaldehyde
摘要: Powder quartz (PQ)/nano-TiO2 composite was prepared by a mechanochemical method. Based on as-prepared PQ/nano-TiO2 composite, we prepared interior paints and investigated the degradation efficiency of formaldehyde (DEF). Scanning electron microscopy showed that nano-TiO2 got well dispersed by the adding of PQ. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the mass ratio of 4:1 was a relatively good proportion for the most production of PQ/nano-TiO2 composite. Fourier transform-infrared spectrometry showed that the peak position of Ti-O-Si bond varied with the milling time. At the early stage, no characteristic peak of Ti-O-Si bond was observed, while at the later stage, new peaks at 902 cm-1 and 937 cm-1 appeared. Meanwhile, PQ/nano-TiO2 composite-based interior paint exhibited significant DEF of 96.3% compared to that consisting of sole nano-TiO2 of 92.0% under visible light illumination. As an abundant mineral resource, PQ would make interior paints with HCHO purifying effect much more efficient and cheaper.

Structural, optical and photoluminescence studies of sol-gel synthesized pure and iron doped TiO2 photocatalysts
摘要: Pure and Iron doped TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized using the sol-gel method. These materials were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), Raman and fluorescence spectrometer. XRD analysis revealed that all the samples were a single phase with anatase nanocrystallite structures. The crystallite size of titania reduced from 9.64 nm to 7 nm with Fe doping. The HRTEM images of the TiO2 and 3% Fe doped TiO2 have revealed that all the particles have a spherical shape with an average particle size of 10 nm and 8 nm respectively. The characteristic peak at 482 cm-1 of the Ti–O bond stretching vibrations can be evidently observed from FTIR analysis. The Raman blue shift was found in the Fe doped TiO2 samples. Fe-doped TiO2 nanoparticles showed a significant red-shift in band edge as compared with pure TiO2 nanoparticles. The redshift of band gap was detected in Fe doped TiO2 nanoparticles. The photoluminescence (PL) emission intensity of Fe doped TiO2 nanoparticles decreases with an increase in Fe doping concentration. The photocatalytic efficiencies of the Fe-doped TiO2 nanoparticles have shown a strong photocatalytic activity (PCA) response. At constant irradiation time, the Fe-doped titania nanoparticles display more catalytic activity compared to undoped TiO2. The photodegradation efficiencies typically decline with an increase in the concentration of Fe+3 doping for the decolorization of methylene blue (MB) under visible light irradiation.

TiO2 Rutile phase formed interlayers by sintering mono phasic bioceramics for Biomedical applications
摘要: The formation of rutile TiO2 phase in nanoHydroxyapatite(nanoHAP) coated titanium metal (nanHAP- TiO2-Ti) is reported. This work is mainly emphasized in order to enhance the corrosion protection performance, osseointegration and biocompatibility. The optimized potential of nanoHAP coated titanium using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) was found to be 80 V and 3 minutes. The coated samples were sintered in air at various sintering temperatures from 600 to 900°C for 1 hour. The crystallinity, vibrational states, surface morphology and surface topography were characterized by XRD, Raman, FESEM with EDAX and AFM studies respectively. In the present work, investigations on the corrosion behavior of sintered sample in Ringer’s solution by means of electrochemical studies using Open Circuit Potential (OCP), Electrochemical Impedance spectroscopic(EIS) and anodic polarization studies were carried out. The electrochemical studies exhibited an enhanced corrosion resistant behaviour towards nanoHAP coated titanium sintered at 800oC with complete rutile TiO2 phase formation. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies of the coated materials were carried out by MTT assay and cell attachment with osteoblast cells. These studies revealed an enhanced cell attachment and proliferation on the composite layer compared to uncoated metal, which controlled the release of metal ions into the biological system.

Homogeneous Anodic TiO <sub/>2</sub> Nanotube Layers on Ti–6Al–4V Alloy with Improved Adhesion Strength and Corrosion Resistance
摘要: Hexagonal TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) arrays are generally fabricated on Ti-based substrates for some biomedical purposes, but the TNT layers constructed on conventionally processed Ti alloys are usually inhomogeneous because the substrates typically contain both the α and β phases. In this work, high-pressure torsion (HPT) is applied to obtain a saturated single α-phase microstructure in Ti–6Al–4V alloys via strain-induced β phase dissolution. Homogeneous anodic TNT layers with three different morphologies, one-step nanoporous, one-step nanotubular, and two-step nanoporous structures, are electrochemically fabricated on the ultrafine-grained (UFG) Ti–6Al–4V alloy substrates after HPT processing, whereas the TNT layers prepared on coarse-grained substrates are normally inhomogeneous. More notably, the TNT layers show significantly improved adhesion strength to the UFG substrate as well as better corrosion resistance compared to those on the conventionally processed Ti–6Al–4V substrates. X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy in combination with electron backscatter diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy indicate that the improvement is due to a larger dislocation density in the UFG substrate as well as strain-induced β phase dissolution.

A novel Ag nanoparticles/TiO2 nanowires-based photodetector and glucose concentration detection
摘要: A unique vapour transport cum glancing angle deposition (VT-GLAD) technique was employed to fabricate titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanowires (NWs). The NWs were grown and assembled to form the clusters. Both brookite (412) and rutile (002) phase for TiO2 was obtained from X-ray diffraction (XRD). The d spacing of ~ 1.37 ? was calculated from the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of TiO2 NWs, which corresponds to (002) crystal plane. The silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) on TiO2 NWs were grown using thermal evaporation cum GLAD technique. The presence of Ag NPs on the TiO2 NWs enhanced the photoconduction as compared to bare TiO2 NWs device. The maximum photosensitivity of the Ag NPs/TiO2 NWs based device was recorded ~ 1.6 times compared to the bare TiO2 NWs based device at ? 2.5 V. The Ag NPs containing device was highly UV sensitive and maximum responsivity for the device was calculated to be ~ 2.3 A/W at 370 nm. The device also possessed high responsivity rejection (RR) ratio of ~ 6.5 between UV (370 nm) and visible (450 nm) light. The Ag NPs decorated TiO2 NWs based detector also showed response to white light. The different concentration of glucose into deionised (DI) water-based solution was detected precisely under white light illumination. The normalised (light/dark) detector current/glucose concentration value was decreased from ~ 0.19 to ~ 0.05 at ? 2.5 V, with an increase in glucose concentration into the solution from 40 mg/dl to 200 mg/dl.

Reusability and photocatalytic activity of bismuth-TiO2 nanocomposites for industrial wastewater treatment
摘要: In this study, bismuth-TiO2 nanotube (Bi-TNT) composites were used for the treatment of industrial wastewater. Bi-TNT were synthesized using two- and one-step anodization methods. The obtained composites were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. For the two-step Bi-TNT composites, we investigated the effect of different Bi deposition times, Bi concentrations, and Bi deposition voltages on photodegradation efficiency. For the one-step Bi-TNT composites, we investigated the effect of different anodization voltages, anodization times, and Bi concentrations. Initially, the optimal synthesis conditions for two- and one-step Bi-TNT catalysts were identified and then these optimized conditions were used for industrial wastewater treatment that was collected from Banwol Sihwa Industrial Complex Republic of Korea. The Bi-TNT two- and one-step composites showed 2.0 and 2.5 times higher photocatalytic activity, respectively, for industrial wastewater treatment than that of TNT in visible-light. Recycling of Bi-TNT composites showed that the one-step composite method was more efficient and stable than the two-step method because Bi coupling and nanotube formation simultaneously occurred.

Carbon quantum dots/TiO2 nanosheets with dominant (001) facets for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution
摘要: Carbon quantum dots/TiO2 nanosheets with a majority of (001) facet (CQDs/TiO2-001) samples are successfully prepared via a facile method. Compared to TiO2-001 and CQDs/P25, the synthesized CQDs/TiO2-001 presents a remarkably higher photocatalytic activity for H2 evolution with a considerable stability. XRD, XPS, HRTEM, FESEM, FTIR, Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, Fluorescence spectroscopy and UV–visible reflectance spectroscopy are adopted to investigate the morphology, structure and properties of synthesized CQDs/TiO2-001. The mechanism of the improved photocatalytic activity over CQDs/TiO2-001 is also investigated. The results show that the improved photocatalytic activity over CQDs/TiO2-001 can be attributed to the synergistic effects of TiO2-001 and CQDs: the highly exposed (001) facets of TiO2-001 promote the transportation of photogenerated electrons and the loading of CQDs restrains the recombination of electrons-holes on (001) facets. Meanwhile, the visible-light absorption is extended because the CQDs serve as a photosensitizer and sensitize TiO2-001 through the newly formed TieOeC bond between the CQDs and TiO2-001.
