Abstract

Advanced ion-beam techniques such as metal ion-implantation and RF magnetron sputtering deposition were successfully applied in the development of titanium oxide photocatalysts capable of absorbing and working under both UV and visible light irradiation. This advanced physical method was found to be one of the most promising approaches to preparation of highly functional second-generation titanium oxide-based photocatalytic materials, TiO2 nano-powders, highly dispersed titanium oxide species within zeolite frameworks, and TiO2 thin film systems with efficient solar beam utilization of up to 20-30 %.
