Preparation and Photocatalytic Property of Nd-TiO₂ Thin Films Prepared by Sol-Gel Dip Coating

Abstract:

Uniform and highly adherent thin films of TiO₂ and Nd-TiO₂ were deposited on high silica fiber by sol-gel dip coating method in this study. The surface morphology and properties of synthesized composites films were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and XPS. The photocatalytic reactivity studies of TiO₂ and Nd-TiO₂ films were evaluated by photodegradation of the methyl orange (MO) under ultraviolet irradiation. The results shown that neodymium doped TiO₂ films have higher photodegradation efficiency than that pure TiO₂ films. The photocatalyst on high silica fiber have a higher photocatalytic activity compare to the glass due to it is light-guide fiber.
