Explaining the Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity of Degussa P25 Mixed-Phase TiO2 Using EPR

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of rutile in mixed-phase titania photocatalyst was investigated by EPR spectroscopy, showing that the transition points between these two phases allow for rapid electron transfer from pure-phase rutiles to anatase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photoreactive TiO2/Carbon Nanotube Composites: Synthesis and Reactivity

TL;DR: A mechanism for the enhanced reactivity is proposed in which electrons are shuttled from TiO2 particles to the SWCNTs as a result of an optimalTiO2/ CNT arrangement that stabilizes charge separation and reduces charge recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Minimizing Graphene Defects Enhances Titania Nanocomposite-Based Photocatalytic Reduction of CO2 for Improved Solar Fuel Production

TL;DR: It is shown that nanocomposites based on the less defective solvent-exfoliated graphene exhibit a significantly larger enhancement in CO(2) photoreduction, especially under visible light.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Water and Carbonates in Photocatalytic Transformation of CO2 to CH4 on Titania

TL;DR: Using the electron paramagnetic resonance technique, the multiple roles of water and carbonates in the overall photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to methane over titania nanoparticles are elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recombination pathways in the Degussa P25 formulation of TiO2: surface versus lattice mechanisms.

TL;DR: It is experimentally shown that upon band-gap illumination holes appear at the surface and preferentially recombine with electrons in surface trapping sites, which indicates that in mixed-phase TiO2, such as Degussa P25, a random flight mechanism of recombination predominates.
