Comparison of the Photocatalytic Activity of N-Doped, P-Doped Titania under Solar Light Irradiation

Article Preview

Abstract:

P-, N-doped titania were synthesized by the direct hydrothermal method, which phosphorus from phosphoric acid and the following nitridation from urea solution. The resulting materials were characterized by XRD, XPS analysis, and their photocatalytic activities were tested by the solar light irradiation. N-doping titania resulted in the band-gap narrowing with improved photocatalytic activity. However, the phosphated titania exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than the N-doped one, but with larger band-gap energy.
