The $TiO_2$ films were prepared in the $H_2SO_4$ solution containing $NH_4F$ at different anodic voltages, to compare the photocatalytic performances of titania for purification of waste water. The microstructure was characterized by a Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Chemical bonding states and co-doped elements of F and N were analyzed using surface X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic activity of the co-doped $TiO_2$ films was analyzed by the degradation of aniline blue solution. From the result of diffuse reflectance absorption spectroscopy(DRS), it is indicated that the absorption edge of the F-N-codoped $TiO_2$ films shifted toward visible light area, and the photocatalytic reaction of $TiO_2$ was improved by doping an appropriate contents of F and N.

A process for nitrogen doping of TiO₂ ceramics was developed, whereby polycrystalline titania particles were prepared at 450-1000℃ with variation of the firing schedule under N₂ atmosphere. The effect of nitrogen doping on the polycrystallites was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman analysis. The microstructure of the TiO₂ ceramics changed with variation of the firing temperature and the firing atmosphere (N₂ or O₂). The microstructural changes in the nitrogen-doped TiO₂ ceramics were closely related to changes in the Raman spectra. Within the evaluated temperature range, the nitrogen-doped titania ceramics comprised anatase and/or rutile phases, similar to those of titania ceramics fired in air. Infiltration of nitrogen gas into the titania ceramics was analyzed by Raman spectroscopy and XRD analysis, showing a considerable change in the profiles of the N₂-doped TiO₂ ceramics compared with those of the TiO₂ ceramics fired under O₂ atmosphere. The nitrogen doping in the anatase phase may produce active sites for photocatalysis in the visible and ultraviolet regions.

Different weight percentages of Ag, Pt, and Au doped nano $TiO_2$ were synthesized using the acetic acid hydrolyzed sol-gel method. The crystallite phase, surface morphology combined with elemental composition and light absorption properties of the doped nano $TiO_2$ were comprehensively examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), $N_2$ sorption analysis, transmission electron microscopic (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray, and DRS UV-vis analysis. The doping of noble metals stabilized the anatase phase, without conversion to rutile phase. The formation of gold nano particles in Au doped nano $TiO_2$ was confirmed from the XRD patterns for gold. The specific surface area was found to be in the range 50 to 85 $m^2$/g. TEM images confirmed the formation a hexagonal plate like morphology of nano $TiO_2$. The photocatalytic activity of doped nano $TiO_2$ was evaluated using 4-chlorophenol as the model pollutant. Au doped (0.5 wt %) nano $TiO_2$ was found to exhibit higher photocatalytic activity than the other noble metal doped nano $TiO_2$, pure nano $TiO_2$ and commercial $TiO_2$ (Degussa P-25). This enhanced photocatalytic activity was due to the cathodic influence of gold in suppressing the electron-hole recombination during the reaction.

The effect of Si3N4 addition on the microstructure and PTCR characteristics of BaTiO3 was studied. When 0.1 mol% Sb2O3-doped BaTiO3 codoped with Si3N4 (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 wt%, respectively) were sintered, their microstructures were changed by the amount of the liquid phase as a result of eutectic reaction at 126$0^{\circ}C$. By these microstructural changes, the specific resistivity ratio($\rho$max/$\rho$min) with Si3N4 content variation of 0.1 mol% Sb2O3-doped BaTiO3 ceramics sintered at 130$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour varied between 3.70$\times$102(0.1 wt% Si3N4) to 1.16$\times$103 (1wt% Si3N4).

본 연구에서는 여러 가지 열처리 온도에서 다성분 도핑에 의한 광촉매의 밴드갭 저감 및 가시광 광분해 효과를 알아보고자 tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TEATFB)로 B, C, N, F 등이 동시에 도핑된 $TiO_{2}$ 광촉매를 제조하였다. 도핑된 $TiO_{2}$ 광촉매가 가시광선영역에서 분해되는 정도를 확인하기 위해서 태양광에 조사하여 rhodamine B와 acridine orange로 염료분해 실험을 수행하였다. XRD 결과 $800^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 열처리된 $TiO_{2}$ 광촉매는 anatase 구조가 존재하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. XPS 분석을 통하여 광활성에 영향을 미치는 B, C, N, F의 결합구조를 확인하였고 UV-DRS 결과로부터 다성분 도핑된 $TiO_{2}$ 광촉매의 밴드 갭이 2.98 eV로 줄어든 것을 알 수 있었다. 다성분 도핑 $TiO_{2}$의 태양광 조사에 의한 UV-Vis 결과에서 acridine orange에 대한 광분해 효과가 도핑되지 않은 샘플에 비해 1.61배 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 특히, 다성분이 동시 도핑되고 $700^{\circ}C$에서 열처리된 샘플이 acridine orange과 rhodamine B 두 가지 염료 모두에서 가장 좋은 광분해 효과를 보여 주었다.

N-doped anatase $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel process followed by a hydrothermal treatment and successfully used as the photoanodes in organic dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). As expected, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 8.44% was obtained for the NKX2677/HC-A-sensitized DSSC based on the 30 mol% N-doped $TiO_2$ photoanode, which was an improvement of 23% relative to that of the DSSC based on the NKX2677/DCA.

물의 광분해에 의한 수소생산을 위하여 이산화티타늄($TiO_2$)과 산화니오븀($Nb_2O_5$)을 이용하여 가시광선 감응 광촉매 개발을 본 연구의 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 요소를 이용한 질소 도핑한 $TiO_2$, $Nb_2O_5$, $HNb_3O_8$ ($TiO_2-N$, $Nb_2O_5-N$와 $HNb_3O_8-N$)을 제조하였다. 그 결과 질소 도핑이 광촉매의 띠간격 에너지를 감소시킴으로써 excitation파장이 자외선 영역에서 가시광선 영역으로 이동한 것을 reflectance 관찰을 통해 알 수 있었다. 특히 $TiO_2-N$의 경우 띠 간격 에너지가 3.3 eV ($TiO_2$)에서 2.72 eV로 가장 큰 감소를 보였다. 또한, 가시광선 영역에서 로다민 B 광분해 반응을 통하여 광촉매의 활성도를 평가하였을 때, 질소 도핑한 경우($Nb_2O_5-N$와 $HNb_3O_8-N$)는 모두 80% 이상의 분해 효율을 나타내었으며 특히 $TiO_2-N$이 약 99.8%의 높은 분해율을 보여주었다. 그러나 질소 도핑을 하지 않은 $TiO_2$와 $Nb_2O_5$의 경우, 약 10% 의 로다민 B가 분해된 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 가시광선 영역에서 각 촉매의 광전류 생성을 비교해보았을 때, $HNb_3O_8-N$ ($63.7mA/cm^2$)이 가장 높은 전류 반응을 나타내었으며 물의 광분해에 의한 수소생산량을 비교해보면 $Nb_2O_5-N$이 $19.4{\mu}mol/h$의 가장 많은 양을 생산한 것으로 나타났다.

용액침전법에 의해 $TiO_2$ 및 $TiO_{2-x}N_x$를 제조하였다. $TiO_{2-x}N_x$ 시료는 순수한 $TiO_2$의 띠 간격인 3.20 eV (390 nm 흡광)로부터 1.77 eV (700 nm 흡광)까지 띠 간격이 줄어들게 되어 자외선 영역 뿐 아니라 가시광선 전체 영역에서도 흡광이 발생하였다. 가시광선에서의 광촉매 활성에서도 $TiO_{2-x}N_x$ 시료는 순수한 $TiO_2$ 및 P-25보다도 더 높은 활성도를 나타냈다.

To synthesize a high-performance photocatalyst, N doped $TiO_2$ nanotubes deposited with Ag nanoparticles were synthesized, and surface characteristics, electrochemical behaviors, and photocatalytic activity were investigated. The $TiO_2$ nanotubular photocatalyst was fabricated by anodization; the Ag nanoparticles on the $TiO_2$ nanotubes were synthesized by a reduction reaction in $AgNO_3$ solution under UV irradiation. The XPS results of the N doped $TiO_2$ nanotubes showed that the incorporated nitrogen ions were located in interstitial sites of the $TiO_2$ crystal structure. The N doped titania nanotubes exhibited a high dye degradation rate, which is effectively attributable to the increase of visible light absorption due to interstitial nitrogen ions in the crystalline $TiO_2$ structure. Moreover, the precipitated Ag particles on the titania nanotubes led to a decrease in the rate of electron-hole recombination; the photocurrent of this electrode was higher than that of the pure titania electrode. From electrochemical and dye degradation results, the photocurrent and photocatalytic efficiency were found to have been significantly affected by N doping and the deposition of Ag particles.
