Nano-technology is a super microscopic technology to deal with structures of 100 nm or smaller. This technology also involves the developing of $TiO_2$ materials or $TiO_2$ devices within that size. The aim of the present paper is to synthesize $WO_x$ doped nano-$TiO_2$ by the Sonochemistry method and to evaluate the effect of different percentages (0.5-5 wt%) of tungsten oxide load on $TiO_2$ in methylene blue (MB) elimination. The samples were characterized using such different techniques as X-ray diffraction (XRD), TEM, SEM, and UV-VIS absorption spectra. The photo-catalytic activity of tungsten oxide doped $TiO_2$ was evaluated through the elimination of methylene blue using UV-irradiation (315-400nm). The best result was found with 5 wt% $WO_x$ doped $TiO_2$. It has been confirmed that $WO_x-TiO_2$ could be excited by visible light (E<3.2 eV) and that the recombination rate of electrons/holes in $WO_x-TiO_2$ declined due to the existence of $WO_x$ doped in $TiO_2$.

This study aimed at improving the $TiO_2$ photocatalytic degradation of HA. In this study, the Degradation of Humic Acid using Jeju Scoria Coated with $WO_3/TiO_2$ in the presence of UV irradiation was investigated as a function of different experimental condition : photocatalyst dosage, $Ca^{2+}\;and\;HCO_{3}_{-}$ addition and pH of the solution. Photodegradation efficiency increased with increasing photocatalyst dosage, the optimum catalyst dosage is 2.5 g/L and Photodegradation efficiency is maximized to $WO_3/TiO_2=3/7$. This indicates that $WO_3$ retains a much higher Lewis surface acidity than $TiO_2,\;and\;WO_3$ has a higher affinity for chemical species having unpaired electrons. The addtion of cation($Ca^{2+}$) in water increased the photodegradaion efficiency. But the addtion of $HCO_{3}^{-}$ ion in water decreased a photodegradation efficiency. Photodegradation efficiency increased with decreasing pH < pzc, the electrostatic repulsion between the HA and the surface of $TiO_2$ decreased.

The influence of grain boundary on the electrical properties of WO3-doped SrTiO3 ceramics has been investi-gated. From the result resistivity and capacitance of grains and boundaries were obtained by employing impedance spectrocopy. And the temperature dependance of capacitance of WO3-doped SrTiO3. was influenced directly by the variation of grain boundary capacitance. It was also found by impedance spectroscopy that the dispersion frequency characteristics showed discernibly that the resistivity of the specimen varied with WO3 content.

Thermodynamic evaluation indicates that nearly 100% conversion of elemental mercury to oxidized mercury can be attained by HCl of several tens of ppm level at the temperature window of SCR reaction. Cu-, Fe-, Mn-chloride loaded $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts revealed good NO removal activity at the operating temperature window of SCR process. The catalysts with high desorption temperature indicating adsorption strength of $NH_3$ revealed higher NO removal activity. The HCl fed to the reaction gases promoted the oxidation of mercury. However, the activity for the oxidation of elemental mercury to oxidized mercury by HCl was suppressed by $NH_3$ inhibiting the adsorption of HCl to catalyst surface under SCR reaction condition containing $NH_3$ for NO removal. Metal chloride loaded $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts showed much higher activity for mercury oxidation than $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalyst without metal chloride under SCR reaction condition. This is primarily attributed to the participation of chloride in metal chloride on the catalyst surface promoting the oxidation of elemental mercury.

This study focuses on improving the photocatalytic degradation efficiency by synthesizing a TiO₂/WO₃ composite. Given the environmental significance of photocatalysis and the limitations posed by TiO₂'s large bandgap and high electron recombination rate, we explored doping, surface modification, and synthesis strategies. The composite was created using a ball mill process and heat treatment, analyzed with field emission scanning electron microscope, high resolution X-ray diffraction, Raman microscope, and UV-Vis/NIR spectrometer to examine its morphology, composition and absorbance. We found that incorporating WO₃ into the TiO₂ lattice forms a W_x-Ti_1-x-O₂ solution, with optimal WO₃ content reducing the band gap and enhancing sterilization efficiency by inhibiting the anatasese to rutile transition. This contributes to the field by offering a way to overcome TiO₂'s limitations and improve photocatalytic performance.

The effect of WO$_3$ addition and sintering condition on the electrical properties of SrTiO$_3$ceramic have been investigated. Resistivity and capacitance of grains and grain boundaries were obtained by applying impedance spectroscopy. From the result it could be concluded that the temperature dependance of capacitance of WO$_3$doped specimens were influenced directly by the variation of grain boundary capacitance. It was also found that the dispersion frequency increased as the degree of reduction of the specimen increased. The dispersion frequency characteristics showed discernably that the resistivity of the specimen varied with WO$_3$ content. The dielectric properties were influenced directly by the reduction of the specimens. The dielectric constant of grain boundaries of BL capacitor could be obtained by Cole-Cole plot and was influeneced by the amount of WO$_3$ added.

Increasing the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) by the fabrication of new photoelectrodes (PEs) is an important challenge. This study examined the photovoltaic parameters of DSSCs composed of a $TiO_2$ PE with $WO_3$ nanoparticles (NPs). A number of PEs with the same thickness but different concentrations of $WO_3$ NPs in the $TiO_2PE$ were prepared. The morphology and structural properties of the prepared PEs were examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The effects of the $WO_3$ NPs mixing concentration on the efficiency of DSSCs were investigated under simulated solar light irradiation.

In this work, all solid-state thin film supercapacitor(TFSC) was fabricated using tungsten trioxide (WO$_3$) with a structure WO$_3$/LiPON/WO$_3$/Pt/TiO$_2$/Si (substrate). After TiO$_2$ was deposited on Si(100) wafer by d.c. reactive sputtering, the Pt current collector films were grown on TiO$_2$glue layer without breaking vacuum by d.c. sputtering. Fabrication conditions of WO$_3$ thin film were such that substrate temperature, working pressure, gas ratio of $O_2$/Ar and r.f. power were room temperature, 5 mTorr, 20% (O$_2$(8sccm)/Ar(32sccm)) and 200W, respectively. LiPON electrolyte film were grown on the WO$_3$ film using r.f. magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The XRD pattern of the as-deposited WO$_3$ thin film were shown no crystalline peak (amorphous). The SEM image of as-deposited WO$_3$ thin film showed that the surface is smooth and uniform. The capacitiy of as-fabricated TFSC was 0$\times$10$^{-2}$ F/$\textrm{cm}^2$-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.
