Abstract

Abstract:

TiO₂ mesocrystals can considerably enhance charge separation owing to their oriented superstructures, with fewer internal defects and porous properties providing more active sites. In this work, we prepared TiO₂ mesocrystal films by a direct annealing method. The morphology and crystal phase of the film were controlled by adjusting the ratio of NH₄F and the calcination temperature. Moreover, we found that Au nanoparticles loaded on a TiO₂ mesocrystal film enabled highly efficient visible light photocatalytic properties. The photocatalytic activities were studied by hydrogen generation and photoreduction of Cr(VI). This work represents a considerable advance in the development and application of the TiO₂ mesocrystals.

Key words: TiO₂ mesocrystals film, Photocatalysis, Hydrogen generation, Cr(VI) reduction
