Visible Light Photocatalytic Activities of Iron and Nickel Co-doped Titania Thin Films

Abstract

Iron and nickel doped TiO2 thin films were prepared on glass slides by using sol-gel and dip coating techniques. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that there may be a 164 solid state solubility limit of 2% on atomic basis and Fe/Ni oxide phases may be formed on the TiO2 grain boundaries beyond this doping level. Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (UVVIS DRS) analysis showed that light absorption range of TiO2 was extended to visible light region by Fe and Ni doping. Visible light photocatalytic activities of the prepared films were determined by methylene blue degradation experiments. The highest activities were obtained with 5% Fe and 1% Ni monodoped TiO2 films as 22% and 28%, respectively. TiO2 films codoped with 1-5% Fe-Ni were prepared in the light of these findings and the highest activity (34%) was achieved with 2% Fe-2% Ni co-doped TiO2 film. It was concluded that an optimum nanophase structure and optical properties were achieved at this co-doping level.
