«Structure and Photocatalytic Properties of SnO\(_2\) Doped with Titanium»
697–706 (2020)

PACS numbers: 61.05.Lp, 68.43.Mn, 68.43.Nr, 78.40.-q, 78.67.Bf, 81.16.Hc, 82.50.Hp

The analysis of the changes in structural, electronic, and photocatalytic properties of tin dioxide doped with titanium oxy-hydroxide TiO(OH)\(_2\) by ultrasonic treatment of wet gel is carried out. The doped samples are characterized using XRD with a full profile analysis of the diffraction patterns, N\(_2\) adsorption–desorption and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The absence of TiO\(_2\)-phase reflections after calcining at 300–550\(^{\circ}\)C and the changes in the lattice parameters a and c for the doped samples compared to the pure SnO\(_2\) indicate the possible formation of solid solution. As a result of doping, more open meso-macroporous structure accessible for dyes molecules (Rhodamine B and Safranin T) is formed. Narrowing the band gap E\(_g\) and an increase in the absorption of visible light up to 10% at a wavelength of 550 nm are also observed. The doped sample, that is a solid solution based on SnO\(_2\), has the highest photocatalytic activity in process of degradation of organic pollutants under visible irradiation.

Keywords: SnO\(_2\), titanium, ultrasonic doping, solid solution, meso-macroporous structure, visible irradiation
