Synthesis of uniform ordered mesoporous TiO 2 microspheres with controllable phase junctions for efficient solar water splitting
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2019 , Article)
As a benchmark photocatalyst, commercial P25-TiO 2 has been widely used for various photocatalytic applications. However, the low surface area and poorly porous structure greatly limit its performance. Herein, uniform ...
Single-micelle-directed synthesis of mesoporous materials
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article Review)
Functional mesoporous materials with multilevel architectures, ranging from 0D to 3D, are typically prepared using surfactant-templating methods. In these methods, surfactants first form single micelles or aggregated ...
TiO2-pillared clays with well-ordered porous structure and excellent photocatalytic activity
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
TiO2-pillared clays with well-ordered porous structures are successfully prepared via incorporating TiO2 nanosol particles into the clays, where empty octahedral sites are partially modified with divalent metal ions such ...
Striking multiple synergies in novel three-phase fluoropolymer nanocomposites by combining titanium dioxide and graphene oxide as hybrid fillers
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, novel three-phase polymer nanocomposites comprising of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and graphene oxide (GO) were prepared using colloidal blending. The PVDF/TiO2/GO ...
Epitaxial Growth of Lattice-Mismatched Core-Shell TiO2@MoS2 for Enhanced Lithium-Ion Storage
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Core-shell structured nanohybrids are currently of significant interest due to their synergetic properties and enhanced performances. However, the restriction of lattice mismatch remains a severe obstacle for heterogrowth ...
General strategy to synthesize uniform mesoporous TiO2/Graphene/Mesoporous TiO2 sandwich-like nanosheets for highly reversible lithium storage
(
American Chemical Society
, 2015 , Article)
Uniform oxide deposition on graphene to form a sandwich-like configuration is a well-known challenge mainly due to their large lattice mismatches and poor affinities. Herein, we report a general strategy to synthesize ...
Optimization of ITO glass/TiO2 based DSSC photo-anodes through electrophoretic deposition and sintering techniques
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In the current study, TiO2 layers were deposited onto Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates at varied voltage levels ranging from 2.5 VDC to 7.5 VDC, using Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process. Subsequently, ...
PbS/CdS heterojunction quantum dot solar cells
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
The present work investigates the effects of combination of lead sulfide PbS quantum dots and cadmium sulfide CdS nanoparticles (NPs), with n-type and p-type semiconductors, on the photovoltaic performance of heterojunction ...
Hierarchical ordered macro/mesoporous titania with a highly interconnected porous structure for efficient photocatalysis
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, a 3-dimensional interconnected hierarchical ordered macro/mesoporous titania (HOPT) with thin walls, crystalline framework, large cavities (?420 nm), uniform mesopores (3.7 nm) and high surface area (177 m2 ...
Photocatalytic removal of phenol from refinery wastewater: Catalytic activity of Cu-doped titanium dioxide
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
A series of Cu-doped TiO2 catalysts were prepared by a sol-gel method and the effect of various synthesis parameters, including solvent type; solvent/catalyst amount; amount of water; catalyst type/amount; and acid type, ...
