Figure 1: Two proposed valence and conduction band alignment mechanisms for the anatase/rutile interface. To understand the band alignment of anatase and rutile TiO 2, we have carried out three ...

A team of material scientists led by Prof. Qi Li from Southwest Jiaotong University in Chengdu, China recently outlined the state of inducing piezoelectricity in distorted rutile TiO 2 for enhanced ...

Photocatalytic water splitting is a clean energy technology that uses sunlight to split water into oxygen and hydrogen in order to produce green hydrogen—a clean fuel—without relying on fossil fuels.

From the perspective of physical properties, nanoscale titanium dioxide has a larger specific surface area and higher surface activity due to its small particle size (usually between 1 and 150 ...
