Detection of Methanol by a Sensor Based on Rare-earth Doped TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> Nanoparticles

The rare earth doped TiO₂ was prepared and characterized with Nd, Ho and Y as the doping agents, which have obvious absorption in visible light area. The particle size of the glomeration was about 200–400 nm. TiO₂ sensor performed a significant change in resistance when exposed to methanol vapor. By comparison, the Nd, Ho and Yb doped TiO₂ sensors exhibited a response of 2.22, 4.05 and 3.78, and lowered response and recovery times of 91, 56 and 67 s, respectively. The Ho doped TiO₂ showed the best methanol-sensing properties, which exhibited high selectivity and response to methanol compared with the other tested vapors. In concentration of 0–10 ppm, the sensor exhibited excellent stability for detecting methanol at various concentrations.

Enhanced Photoelectric Property of Mo-C Codoped TiO_2 Films Deposited by RF Magnetron Cosputtering

Mo-C codoped TiO_2 films were prepared by RF magnetron cosputtering. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray Analysis and X-Ray Diffraction were used to study the influences of codoping on energy gap, surface morphology, valence states of elements, ions content and crystal structure, respectively. The concentration of photogenerated carriers was measured by studying photocurrent density, while catalytic property was evaluated by observing degradation rate of methylene blue under visible light. A Mo-doped TiO_2 film, whose content of Mo had been optimized in advance, was prepared and later used for subsequent comparisons with codoped samples. The result indicates that Mo-C codoping could curtail the energy gap and shift the absorption edge toward visible range. Under the illumination of visible light, codoped TiO_2 films give rise to stronger photocurrent due to smaller band gaps. It is also found that Mo, C codoping results in a porous surface, whose area declines gradually with increasing carbon content. Carbon and Molybdenum doses were delicately optimized. Under the illumination of visible light, sample doped with 9.78at% carbon and 0.36at% Mo presents the strongest photocurrent which is about 8 times larger than undoped TiO_2 films, and about 6 times larger than samples doped with Mo only.

Enhanced piezoelectric properties of Nd^3＋ doped nano-lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric ceramics

Nd^3＋ doped lead zirconate titanate （Pb1-3x/2NdxZr0.52Ti0.48O3, PNZT） nanopowders were prepared through a modified sol-gel method. The effects of Nd^3＋ doping on the microstructures and properties of PNZT ceramics have been studies. The grain sizes of the perovskite PNZT nanopowders were about 100nm and the lattice distortion of the PNZT increased with the content of Nd^3＋ up to 9 mol%. The dopant of Nd^3＋ resulted in the decrease of crystal lattice parameter a and the obvious increase of c and c/a, which effectively improved the sintered densification and activity of the PNZT ceramics. Due to lead vacancies caused by the doping of Nd3^＋ in the PZT, the piezoelectric constant, electromechanical coupling coefficient and dielectric constant observed were much higher than the monolithic PZT.

Highly Efficient Synthesis of Environmentally Friendly Ag-modified TiO_2 Nanoflowers to Enhance Photocatalytic Performance

Ag-modified TiO_2 nanoflowers were prepared using a two-step process. The experimental process is green and free from contamination and can be synthesized directly at room temperature. Compared with pure TiO_2, Ag-modified TiO_2 enhances the absorption of visible light and effectively promotes the detachment of photoelectron pairs, Ag-TiO_2 has a significantly enhanced visible light response activity to photodecomposition of methyl orange(MO). It is shown that the strong interaction between Ag nanoparticles and TiO_2 enhances the photocatalytic activity of TiO_2 nanoflowers. The self-made open-air reactor was used to test the photocatalytic performance of different samples. The results showed that Ag-modified TiO_2 nanoflowers had excellent photodegradation ability. After repeated photodegradation of MO, Ag-modified TiO_2 nanoflowers showed good stability.

Facile Preparation of PVA-AA/TiO_2 Composite Gel Particles and Their Tunable Photo-catalytic Property for the Degradation of Methyl Orange

In the presence of titanium dioxide powder, cross-linking reaction between commercial polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)-based macromonomer and acrylic acid(AA) was initiated with potassium persulfate in an emulsifying system. As a result, PVA-AA/TiO_2 composite gel particles were obtained. The morphology and composition of the particles were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy scattering x-ray spectroscopy(EDS), Fourier infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA). The analysis results confirmed that the particles were the expected ones. TiO_2 was dispersed homogeneously within the spheroidal particles. Compared to the control gel, the composite gel particles not only contained Ti element but also showed higher thermal stability. In addition, the photo-catalytic behavior of the particles for the degradation of methyl orange contained in aqueous solution was examined. The particles exhibited photocatalytic characteristic for the degradation of the model dye, which could be modulated by simply varying the amount of cross-linking agent or TiO_2. The photo-catalytic degradation percentage of methyl orange maintained at 91%-96% after using the particles three times, which indicated that TiO_2 could played its role repeatedly via being fixated within polyvinyl alcohol-based gel.
