Popis: | Cr-doped TiO2/SiO2 nanostructured materials were prepared employing a layer-by-layer assemblym technique. TiO2 colloids were synthesized by a sol-gel method using TiCl4 as a precursor. The experimental results showed that sphere-type TiO2 particles on SiO2 exhibited uniform shape and a narrow size distribution. The amount of Ti (wt %) increased as a function of the number of the coating layers. The coatingv layers was composed of anatase titania nanocrystals at 550 °C. The onset of band-gap transition for Crdoped TiO2/SiO2 showed a red shift compared with that for the undoped TiO2/SiO2. And the photocatalytic activity of Cr-doped TiO2/SiO2 was higher than that of undoped sample. |
