Fast Preparation of Carbon-Incorporated TiO₂ and Its Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Properties: An Introduction of a Comprehensive Materials Experiment

Department of Materials Science, Fudan University, Shanghai 200433, P. R. China

The use of solar energy through titanium dioxide, one of the most promising semiconductor photocatalyst, is a possible solution to energy shortage and environmental pollution. In this paper, anatase carbon- incorporated TiO₂ microspheres are prepared by a facile flame thermal approach, which is annealing-free and almost no waste and simple. The photocatalytic hydrogen yield of the as-prepared TiO₂ sample is tested by gas chromatograph under Xe lamp irradiation. Through this experiment, students can learn photocatalytic mechanism, the synthesis and characterization of semiconductor photocatalyst as well as know a little about solar energy, hydrogen energy and environmental awareness.
