Infrared Spectroscopic Measurement of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticle Shallow Trap State Energies

Within the â forbiddenâ range of electron energies between the valence and conduction bands of titanium dioxide, crystal lattice irregularities lead to the formation of electron trapping sites. These sites are known as shallow trap states, where â shallowâ refers to the close energy proximity...
