Research Abstract |
The metal ion-implantation of titanium dioxide (TiO_2) with metal ions (V^+, Mn^+, Fe^+) at high energy acceleration and the subsequent calcination of these metal ion-implanted Ti_2 in oxygen at around 725 K resulted in a definite shift in the absorption spectra toward visible light regions. These catalysts exhibited photocatalytic reactivity for degradation of 2-propanol diluted in water under visible light irradiation (l> 450 nm). XAFS studies have revealed that the implanted metal ions are located at the lattice positions of Ti^<4+> in TiO_2 after the calcination. These spectroscopic studies show that the substitution of Ti ions in TiO_2 lattice with implanted metal ions is important to modify TiO_2 to be able to adsorb visible light and operate as photocatalysts under visible light irradiation.
