摘要: 以纳米管钛酸为前驱体, 以 NH4HCO3 为 N 源, 先机械研磨使二者混合均匀, 再在 Ar 保护下, 于不同温度焙烧 4 h 制得 N 掺杂 TiO2 (N-TiO2), 并采用 X 射线粉末衍射、X 射线光电子能谱、紫外-可见吸收光谱、透射电镜及 N2 吸附-脱附对样品进行了表征. 结果显示, N 以间隙掺杂方式进入 TiO2 晶格内. 在热处理过程中, 生成中间体 (NH4)2Ti2O4(OH)2, 它不仅可在升温过程中缓慢分解并释放出 N, 使其更均匀地进入 TiO2, 同时可产生更多的氧空位, 显著提高了 N-TiO2 对光的响应能力. 另外, N 的掺杂可抑制 N-TiO2 锐钛矿相向金红石相转化. 当焙烧温度为 500 °C, n(N)/n(Ti) = 4 时, 所制 N-TiO2 样品经光照 130 min, 可使甲基橙完全降解, 其活性比未掺杂 N 的样品提高近 30%.

Abstract: N-doped TiO2 photocatalyst samples were prepared by manual grinding the mixture of nanotube titanic acid and ammonium bicarbonate followed by annealing the mixture at different temperatures in Ar atmosphere for 4 h. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-Vis spectrophotometry, transmission electron microscope, and N2 adsorption-desorption. The XPS results indicated that the N was in the form of interstitial atom, i.e., Ti–O–N bond. The intermediate (NH4)2Ti2O4(OH)2 was formed when the mixture was calcined at different temperatures. Subsequently, the N was released due to the decomposition of (NH4)2Ti2O4(OH)2, resulting in the formation of interstitial-N and oxygen vacancies. N-TiO2 samples showed enhanced visible light absorption and visible light photocatalytic activity because of the existence of interstitial N-dopants and oxygen vacancies. The doped N atoms restrained the phase transition from anatase to rutile at higher temperature. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated by degradation of methyl orange in aqueous solution under xenon lamp irradiation, and the N-TiO2 sample with n(N)/n(Ti) = 4 annealed at 500 °C exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity. After 130 min irradiation, the photocatalytic degradation rate of methyl orange was up to 100%, almost 30% higher than that of un-doped TiO2.
