Abstract

A one-step, hydrothermal method for the synthesis of C-N co-doped titanium dioxide photocatalysts is demonstrated. The incorporation of nitrogen from ammonia and carbon from alcohols with different chain length (methanol, ethanol, isopropanol) used as carbon precursors was confirmed by XRD, UV-visible and XPS analyses. The results indicated that C and N doped into the TiO₂ crystal lattice simultaneously by hydrothermal process. The photocatalytic performance in the degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol indicated that C and N co-doped TiO₂ showed much higher photocatalytic activity than pure TiO₂ and single doped samples under visible light. The possible mechanism was proposed.
