Artigo IPEN-doc 28127 Surface properties enhancement by sulfur-doping TiO2 films2021 - BENTO, RODRIGO T.; CORREA, OLANDIR V.; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; PILLIS, MARINA F.TiO2 films were sulfur-doped through an alternative route based on the decomposition of H2S at low temperatures. MOCVD technique was used to grown the films on borosilicate glass substrates at 400 °C. The doping was carried out at 50, 100 and 150 °C under a mixture of H2-2%v.H2S. SO42− groups were observed in the surface revealing the substitution of Ti4+ by S6+. Superficial roughness and wettability were also modified by the formation of these sulfate groups on the surface. Photocatalytic experiments of methyl-orange dye decolorization under visible light indicated that the 8 at.% S-TiO2 film exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity, with 72.1% of dye decolorization. The results suggest that the exposition of TiO2 films to the mixture H2-H2S at low temperatures is an efficient method of doping. These films allow the decolorization of the dye under visible light irradiation, which enable its practical use under sunlight or even indoor.Artigo IPEN-doc 27557 Visible-light photocatalytic activity and recyclability of N-doped TiO2 films grown by MOCVD2020 - OLIVEIRA, E.C. de; BENTO, R.T.; CORREA, O.V.; PILLIS, M.F.Nitrogen-doped TiO2 films were grown on borosilicate glass substrates at 400 °C by the metallorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) for removing dye from water under visible light. The effect of N-doping on the structural, surface, and photocatalytic properties of films was evaluated. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses revealed that 1.56 and 2.44 at% of nitrogen were incorporated into the films by varying the NH3 flux during the growth. Methyl orange dye degradation experiments showed that the N-doped films presented photoactivity under visible light. The film containing 2.44 at% of nitrogen exhibited the best photocatalytic behavior, with 55% of efficiency. Recyclability tests under visible light showed that the film efficiency dropped gradually after each test. N-TiO2 films grown by MOCVD have the potential to be used in environmental applications by removing pollutants using a green method under sunlight or even under internal illumination, although its reuse is limited.Artigo IPEN-doc 25006 Characterization and photocatalytic behavior of TiO2 thin films grown by MOCVD process2017 - BENTO, RODRIGO T.; OLIVEIRA, EDUARDO C. de; SZURKALO, MARGARIDA; CORREA, OLANDIR V.; PILLIS, MARINA F.This research aims to evaluate the influence of the thickness on the photocatalytic behavior of TiO2 thin films grown at 400ºC by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Titanium dioxide films with 280 and 468 nm of thickness were grown on borosilicate substrates. The photocatalytic behavior was evaluated by monitoring the degradation of methyl orange dye under UV light for 2h. The results show that both films presented anatase crystalline phase and that increasing the thickness the grain size and the roughness were also increased. The best photocatalytic performance was attributed to the film of 468 nm of thickness that exhibited 40% of dye degradation after 2h under UV light.
