متن کاملAnatase TiO2 Single Crystals Exposed with High-Reactive {111} Facets Toward Efficient H2 Evolution
In this study, for the first time, {111} facet exposed anatase TiO2 single crystals are prepared via both F− and ammonia as the capping reagents. In comparison with the most investigated {001}, {010}, and {101} facets for anatase TiO2, the density functional theory (DFT) calculations predict that {111} facet owns a much higher surface energy of 1.61 J/m, which is partially attributed to the lar...
متن کاملAnatase TiO2 crystals with exposed high-index facets.
Put your best face forward: The performance of TiO2 anatase crystals in energy and environmental applications is normally correlated with the TiO2 crystal facets exposed, and increasing the percentage of highly reactive surfaces is extremely important. A new gas-phase oxidation process using TiCl4 as precursor now yields anatase TiO2 single crystals with primarily high-index {105} facets, which...
متن کاملInfluence of TiO2 layer thickness as photoanode in Dye Sensitized Solar Cells
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are categorized as some of inexpensive thin-film solar cells. The basis and foundation of these cells is a semiconductor that consists of an electrolyte and a light-sensitive anode. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a semiconductor that plays the role of anode and is the main constituent of these cells. In this paper, we have addressed the functionality and performan...
