| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is revealed that identification of metal-oxide powders is enabled by energy-resolved distribution of electron traps (ERDT) measured using newly developed reversed double-beam photoacoustic spectroscopy. The ERDT patterns and conduction-band bottom (CBB) positions, measured by ordinary photoacoustic spectroscopy, for more than 20 titanium(IV) oxide (titania) powders were different depending on the kind of sample. Degrees of coincidence (dC) of ERDT/CBB were evaluated for a given pair of samples as a product of coincidence of (a) ERDT-pattern matching, (b) total ET density and (c) CBB position. Samples with different code names showed low dC except for pairs of samples prepared in the same way but coded differently. Furthermore, it was shown that the higher the dC, the higher the degree of coincidence of photocatalytic activity of titania samples, i.e., photocatalytic activity of titania samples may be governed by ERDT/CBB.
