Tóm tắt tiếng anh
Nanocrystalline N-doped SiO2/TiO2 visible-light photocatalyst thin films were synthesized using the sol-gel method on glass substrates. The synthesized catalysts were then characterized using several analytical techniques like x-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis). The experimental results revealed that the maximum optical response of the synthesized SiO2/TiO 2 thin films shifted from the ultraviolet (UV) to the visible-light region (γ > 420 nm). The photocatalytic activity of N-doped SiO 2-TiO2 photocatalyst was considerably higher than that of SiO2-TiO2, and this result was obtained with an optimal concentration of 40 mol% of N. The enhanced photocatalytic activity was attributed to the increasing surface area and forming more hydroxyl groups in the doped catalyst. © 2010 Vietnam Academy of Science & Technology.
