Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere are harmful materials which influence indoor air environment and human health. Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) is photocatalyst extensively used in degradation of organic compound. To improve the photocatalytic activity in the visible light region, doping with non-metals element or loading noble metals on the surface of $TiO_2$ is generally proposed. In this study, N- doped $TiO_2$ having photocatalytic activity in visible light region was attached noble metal such as Pt, Ag, Pd, Au by coupling method. Catalytic activities of Noble metal coupled $N-TiO_2$ powders were evaluated by the improvement of their photocatalytic activities and the degradation of VOC gas. A UV-Vis spectrophotometer was used to measure the diffuse reflectance spectra of coupled $N-TiO_2$ sample. The photocatlytic activities of as prepared samples were characterized by the decoloration of aqueous MB solution under Xenon light source (UV and visible light). To measure of decomposition VOCs, ethylbenzene was selected for target VOC material and the concentration was monitored under UVLED irradiation in a closed chamber system. Adjusting the initial concentration of 10~12 ppm, to evaluate the removal characteristics by using the coupled $N-TiO_2$.

The photodegradation of the model compounds Quinol, an aromatic organic compound and Acid blue FFS, an acid dye of chemical class Triphenylmethane was studied by using illumination with UV lamp of light intensity 250W. $TiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ doped with Boron and Nitrogen was used as catalyst. The sol-gel method was followed with titanium isopropoxide as precursor and doping was done using Boron and Nitrogen. In photocatalytic degradation, $TiO_2$ and doped $TiO_2$ dosage, UV illumination time and initial concentration of the compounds were changed and examined in order to determine the optimal experimental conditions. Operational time was optimized for 360 min. The optimum dosage of $TiO_2$ and BN doped $TiO_2$ was obtained to be 2 $mgL^{-1}$ and 2.5 $mgL^{-1}$ respectively. Maximum degradation % for quinol and Blue FFS acid dye was 78 and 95 respectively, at the optimum dosage of BN-doped $TiO_2$ catalyst. It was 10 and 4% higher than when undoped $TiO_2$ catalyst was used.

Microbiological treatment, chlorination, and ozonation are usually used for water treatment. However, there is weakness that these methods can't decompose and eliminate recalcitrant organic pollutants perfectly. It is possible to eliminate recalcitrant organic pollutants when photocatalysis of $TiO_2$ is used. In this study, the removal efficiencies of organic pollutants by using photocatalyst of $TiO_2$ in the slightly polluted golf club water hazard and a river were investigated. The amount of $TiO_2$ was divided into three categories of 1 g/L, 2 g/L and 4 g/L in order to investigate the adequate amount of $TiO_2$ and the removal efficiency. UV light was used as a light source for the reaction of photocatalyst. As a conclusion in this study, the efficiency of turbidity removal was increased in proportion to the amount of $TiO_2$ until 4 hours. After then the turbidity was gradually decreased. Finally, the optimum concentration of $TiO_2$ was 4 g/L. The efficiency of COD removal was increased in proportion to the amount of $TiO_2$ regardless of time.

$TiO_2$의 물리적 특성이 메틸렌 블루 광분해 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해, $HNO_3$/TTIP가 0.1, 0.5, 1.0과 1.5인 몰비에서 아나타제와 아나타제/루틸 $TiO_2$ 시료들이 제조되었다. XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, FT-IR과 UV-vis 분광기를 사용하여 시료들의 물리적 특성을 측정하였다. 아나타제 상이 $HNO_3$/TTIP가 0.1인 시료에서 관찰되었고, 아나타제/루틸 상은 $HNO_3$/TTIP가 0.5~1.5인 시료들에서 관찰되었다. $HNO_3$/TTIP 몰 비를 증가시킴에 따라 루틸 결정상, $TiO_2$ 나노입자 사이의 메조 세공 크기와 $TiO_2$의 표면 OH 작용기는 점차 증가하였고, UV 조사 전 메틸렌 블루 잔류 농도는 78.0에서 53.3%으로 감소하였다. UV 조사 후 $HNO_3$/TTIP가 0.1, 0.5, 1.0과 1.5에서 제조된 시료들의 잔류 메틸렌 블루 농도는 각각 20, 14, 11과 23%이었고, $HNO_3$/TTIP가 1.0에서 제조된 시료가 가장 우수한 광촉매능을 나타내었다.

$La/TiO_2$ - graphene composites were synthesized in this study, and applied to the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) under UV-visible light irradiation. X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis demonstrated that $La/TiO_2$ nanoparticles were well distributed on the surface of graphene, and formed the heterostructure of $La/TiO_2$-graphene. Compared to the pure $TiO_2$, $La/TiO_2$-graphene composites displayed much higher photocatalytic activities in RhB degradation under UV-visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic data of $La/TiO_2$-graphene composites exhibit extended light absorption in the visible light region, and possess better charge separation capability than that of pure $TiO_2$. The high photocatalytic activity was attributed to the composite's high adsorptivity, extended light absorption, and increased charge separation efficiency, due to the excellent electrical properties of graphene, and the large surface contact between graphene and $La/TiO_2$ nanoparticles.

Fe-carbon/$TiO_2$ composites were prepared by a sol-gel method using AC, ACF, CNT and $C_{60}$ as carbon precursors and were characterized by means of BET surface area, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The activity of the prepared photocatalysts was investigated by degradation reaction of methylene blue (MB) irradiated with UV lamp. Effects of different carbon sources and irradiation time on photocatalytic activity were also investigated. The results showed that the photocatalytic activity of the Fe-carbon/$TiO_2$ composites was much higher than that of pristine $TiO_2$ and Fe/$TiO_2$ composites. The prominent photocatalytic activity of Fecarbon/$TiO_2$ composites could be attributed to both the effects of photo-adsorption and electron transfer by carbon substrate. In addition, the higher photocatalytic activity of Fe-carbon/$TiO_2$ composites can be compared with that of carbon/$TiO_2$ and Fe /$TiO_2$ composites due to cooperative effects between Fe and carbon.

In this study, CNT/$TiO_2$ composites were prepared using surface modified Multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and titanium n-butoxide (TNB) with benzene. The composites were characterized by nitrogen adsorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), FT-IR spectra, and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. The UV radiation induced photoactivity of the CNT/$TiO_2$ composites was tested using a fixed concentration of methylene blue (MB, $C_{16}H_{18}N_3S{\cdot}Cl{\cdot}3H_2O$) in an aqueous solution. Finally, it can be considered that the MB removal effect of the CNT/$TiO_2$ composites is not only due to the adsorption effect of MWCNT and photocatalytic degradation of $TiO_2$, but also to electron transfer between MWCNT and $TiO_2$.

염료감응형 태양전지의 구성체 중 전극으로 연구 되어 지고 있는 $TiO_2$는 기존에 대량 생산이 가능한 spin coating법, screen printing법, spray법의 연구가 이루어져 왔으나 고 효율 태양전지에 쓰이는 전극 시스템에 비해 고 분산성을 지닌 $TiO_2$페이스트를 제조 하는데 어려움이 있다. 그리고 플렉시블 디스플레이 소자의 응용을 위해서는 소자 공정 온도인 $250^{\circ}C$ 이하의 공정 온도가 요구 되어 지므로 고온공정인 CVD법은 이에 적합하지 않다. 이에 본 연구는 진공 증착 방법인 광원자층증착법을 이용하여 $150^{\circ}C$이하의 저온공정온도에서도 적용이 가능한 $TiO_2$ 박막을 185nm의 UV light를 조사하여 glass 기판위에 제조 하고 그에 따른 박막의 물성 분석을 하였다. Mo source로는 titanium tetraisopropoxide(TTIP)와 reactant gas 로는 $H_2O$를 사용하였으며 불활성 기체인 Ar 가스는 purge 가스로 각각 사용하였다. $100^{\circ}C{\sim}250^{\circ}C$ 공정온도를 변수로 $TiO_2$ 박막을 제조 하였으며 제조된 $TiO_2$ 박막의 물성 분석을 위해 FESEM, TEM을 이용하여 표면 및 두께를 분석하였다. 또한 $100^{\circ}C$ 400 cycles에서 약 12nm 막 두께를 관찰 할 수 있었으며 그 결과 박막의 성장률이 $0.3{\AA}$/cycle 임을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그리고 UV-VIS을 이용하여 박막의 좌외선에 대한 흡수도 및 투과도 분석을 하였다. 또한 XPS 성분 분석을 통하여 $100^{\circ}C$의 저온 공정에서 형성된 박막이 $TiO_2$임을 확인 하였다. 이러한 결과에서 185nm의 UV light에 의한 광원자층 증착법으로 $100^{\circ}C$의 저온에서도 $TiO_2$ 박막이 증착 되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

$TiO_2$ coating ceramic tile for self-cleaning purpose was prepared by the precipitant dropping method using $TiCl_4$ as a precursor. $TiO_2$ film was formed on the ceramic tile by spray-coating technique and heat-treated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The size and crystalline structure of $TiO_2$ particles were 15.3 nm and anatase phase. The outdoor exposure tests were conducted and the effects of outdoor exposure test conditions, such as exhaust concentration of contamination materials (test places), the UV light intensity (irradiation direction) and coating amounts of $TiO_2$ on the self-cleaning properties were investigated by the brightness measurements. As a results, self-cleaning property of $TiO_2$ coating tile was affected by the coating amount of $TiO_2$ however, not affected by the UV light intensity included in sun's ray (irradiation direction). $TiO_2$ coating ceramic tile can be utilized for exterior finishing materials because of self-cleaning property of $TiO_2$ coating tile.
