Anodic Titanium Oxide Layers Modified with Gold, Silver, and Copper Nanoparticles
Titanium(IV) oxide is commonly used in photocatalysis. However, it has some drawbacks, e.g., a high rate of electron-hole recombination and a wide bandgap. In here, the surface of anodic titanium(IV) oxide (ATO) was modified with metal nanoparticles (gold, silver, and copper) in order to enhance its...
