Magneli-Phases in Anatase Strongly Promote Co-Catalyst-Free Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution
Maximilian Domaschke, Xuemei Zhou, Lukas Wergen +5
Magneli phases of titanium dioxide (such as Ti4O7, Ti5O9, etc.) provide electronic properties, namely a stable metallic behavior at room temperature. In this manuscript, we demonst…
Intrinsically Activated SrTiO3: Photocatalytic H2 Evolution from Neutral Aqueous Methanol Solution in the Absence of Any Noble Metal Cocatalyst
Xuemei Zhou, Ning Liu, Tadahiro Yokosawa +5
Noble metal cocatalysts are conventionally a crucial factor in oxide-semiconductor-based photocatalytic hydrogen generation. In the present work, we show that optimized high-temper…
Carbon Decorated TiO2 Nanotube Membranes: A Renewable Nanofilter for Size- and Charge Selective Enrichment of Proteins
Jingwen Xu, Lingling Yang, Yuyao Han +5
In this work, we design a TiO2 nanomembrane (TiNM) that can be used as a nanofilter platform for a selective enrichment of specific proteins. After use the photocatalytic propertie…
Self-ordered Mo-oxide Nanotube Arrays as Precursor for Aligned MoOx/MoS2 Core-Shell Nanotubular Structures with a High Density of Reactive Sites
Bowen Jin, Xuemei Zhou, Li Huang +3
In the present work we demonstrate the self-organized formation of anodic Mo-oxide nanotube arrays grown on a Mo sheet under suitable electrochemical conditions in glycerol/NH4F el…
Stable Co-Catalyst-Free Photocatalytic H2 Evolution From Oxidized Titanium Nitride Nanopowders
Xuemei Zhou, Eva M. Zolnhofer, Nhat Truong Nguyen +3
In the present work, a simple strategy is used to thermally oxidize TiN nanopowder (ca. 20 nm) to an anatase phase of a TiO2:Ti3+:N compound. In contrast to the rutile phase of suc…
Ar+-ion Bombardment of TiO2 Nanotubes Creates Co-catalytic Effect for Photocatalytic Open Circuit Hydrogen Evolution
Xuemei Zhou, Ning Liu, Patrik Schmuki
In the present work, extended Argon ion bombardment was used to modify anatase TiO2 nanotube (NTs) layers. In situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed a high content of sub-o…
Anodic TiO2 nanotube layers: why does self-organized growth occur - A mini review
Xuemei Zhou, Nhat Truong Nguyen, Selda Ozkan +1
The present review gives an overview of the highlights of more than 10 years of research on synthesis and applications of ordered oxide structures (nanotube layers, hexagonal pore…
