Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Thin films containing aligned WO3 nanorods were grown directly onto a W metal plate via a hydrothermal reaction in the presence of Cs2SO4. The obtained WO3 nanorods thin films were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, HRTEM, DRS and XPS. The films exhibited a much higher photocatalytic activity than WO3 nanoplates and TiO2 thin films under visible light irradiation. Further, the films showed good stability during the photocatalytic reaction.
